Reviews

Intense aromas of spices, saffron and orange peel. Medium-bodied with extract and phenolics that give it incredible length and structure. 175 g/L residual sugar. Botrytis is pure and clear. ~ 97-98 James Suckling 

The 2025 Lafaurie-Peyraguey is the only cuvée this year, there is no second wine. This was cropped at 12 hl/ha between September 16 and October 9 via three tries, one just to clean the vineyard, and comprises 100% Sémillon with 175 g/l of residual sugar. It has a very nuanced bouquet that opens nicely with aeration, dried peach, pear and light waxy scents, a touch of saffron in the background. The palate is beautiful, very well balanced with pure botrytised fruit, a little almond and chamomile towards the finish with very well integrated oak. This is a really classy Sauternes that has a long future ahead. ~ 96-98 Vinous Media

Honeyed apricot, orange marmalade, mint, and ginger cracker nuances all emerge from the 2025 Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey, a full-bodied, unctuous, and beautifully put together Sauternes. On the palate, it brings lots of sweetness while staying fresh and lively, with a wonderful sense of freshness and a layered, seamless mouthfeel. This is 100% Sémillon, aging in a mix of barrels and stainless steel tanks; it checks in at 13.5% alcohol. ~ 95-97 Jeb Dunnuck 

Richly spiced on the nose, lots of oak here. Bitter toast, chocolate, cedar and clove. Ripe and full, quite a luscious, heady style as you’d expect. Clean, grippy, focused and so pure, I like this personality and confidence. Overt, massy yet still not over the top. Quite hedonistic, and why not, this will have fans. ~ 93 Decanter
