Other reviews...
The 2015 Sigalas Rabaud has an open and generous bouquet that suggests perhaps a little less botrytis than its peers. The palate is well balanced with quince and marmalade notes, a keen line of acidity and a vibrant, citrus-fruit finish that leaves a dab of white peach on the aftertaste. I suspect that the nose will come into form during its élevage.

Quite ripe in style, with creamed pear and peach flavors and a broad dried apricot note. A bit rambunctious on the almond-edged finish, but this should settle in with time.

Minty nuances enliven fresh apple, citrus and mineral aromas and flavours. Has Sigalas-Rabaud’s tell-tale long, mineral delicate mouthfeel. A smashing wine, ideal for those who prefer the lighter side of Sauternes.

Very pretty young Sauternes with so much intensity and excellent energy combining sweetness, freshness and zest.

There is a bitter orange-marmalade disposition here. It gives a sense of dryness to the otherwise sweet and sour character of this balanced wine. It is perfumed and likely to age well.
