Other reviews...
The 2015 Raymond-Lafon has an attractive bouquet in the making: intense honey, acacia and white flower scents soaring from the glass. The palate is very well balanced and pure: mineral-tinged honeyed fruit, great tension with plenty of finesse on the finish. This is one of the best vintages that I have tasted in recent years.

Solidly built, with juicy nectarine, peach and apricot flavors, backed by a substantial singed almond note. Has the zip to stay lively.

Hints of cedar and white pepper along with fresh citrus and tropical fruit nuances. Vibrant acidity, long and very tactile. The 25% Sauvignon Blanc is than usual, but 98% of the berries were hit by noble rot. Despite this, it is incredibly fresh and light.

This is a rich wine that has a generous full-bodied character. At the same time, the acidity is there, offering some beautiful spice and ginger. This is going to develop so well.
