One of the most famous names of Sauternes and made by the Lafite-Rothschild team, this is a blend of 83% Sémillon, 12% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% Muscadelle. "So much botrytis on the nose with spice, dried mushrooms and nutmeg. Dried lemons and mangoes. Full-bodied and medium sweet with density and, at the same time, lightness. I like that it is full of botrytis on the palate at the beginning and then turns fruity and very pretty at the end with citrus and fruit. Balanced, creamy and rich. Try after 2024, but already gorgeous."James Suckling - 97 Points

| Critics Review | Decanter - 96 PointsA great Sauternes with a wonderful brightness and freshness, this gathers speed through the palate, developing flavours of cinnamon, caramel, white pepper, clove and smoked pineapple, all wrapped in an extremely silky texture. It's still in barrel, and will be for another few months. Around 50% new oakJane Anson |
