Discover this Sauternes 2010 375mL

Chateau Lafaurie-Peyraguey is considered to be comfortably associated with the upper echelon of Sauternes wines produced; a lofty place to be. The estate didn't always have such a privileged reputation, instead it has been a more recent (1970s) effort to assert control over vineyard and winemaking that has turned the fortune of the Chateau around. Now, the Soci?t? Foncier des Domaines Cordier holds control over the estate, creating wines from the properties 40 hectares of vineyards located in Bommes, and planted to 90% S?millon, 5% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% Muscadelle. The wines are typically rich, unctuous, generous and slippery-textured wines of deep concentration and yet finesse.

Critical Acclaim

The Lafaurie-Peyraguey 2010 is a little more backward on the nose compared to its peers, with tightly wound scents of dried honey, tropical fruit quince and melted butter. The oak is well integrated. The palate is well-balanced on the entry, the viscous fruit neatly offset by the crisp line of acidity that keeps the finish taut and linear. This is a stylish Sauternes full of breeding and class. Perhaps it has wider appeal than its peers and it serves as a perfect introduction to the Sauternes vintage.
