Other Reviews….

Neal Martin Wine Advocate Issue #200 Apr 2012 (92-94) Drink 2015 - 2035.
The impressive Lafaurie Peyraguey has a light but well-defined, almond-scented nose with a satisfactory level of botrytis. With aeration, hints of pineapple begin to emerge with aromas of vanilla and white peach. The palate is medium-bodied with a very composed, very pure entry and a keen thread of acidity. It shows admirable weight and botrytization, with a gorgeous spicy finish that has impressive persistency.

DECANTER : 18

James Suckling : 93-94
A dense and rich Sauternes with nutmeg, dried mushroom, sweet apples and honey. Full, very sweet and long. Very concentrated.
