2023 Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey

Plenty of botrytis, dried mushroom, apricot, orange peel and honey aromas and flavors. It's medium-bodied with a very sweet palate and a racy and intense finish. Tight at the end. Very classic Sauternes. 178 g/L residual sugar. Drink or hold. (12/2025)

The 2023 Lafaurie-Peyraguey has a medium straw-gold color. It sashays out with gregarious notes of lemon marmalade, honeycomb, and fresh pineapple, followed by hints of lemongrass, allspice, and candied ginger. The palate is rich and concentrated, with exhilarating tension to counter, finishing with epic length and a whole firework display of exotic fruit and spices. Talk about a tropical paradise! (05/2024)
