Lafaurie Peyraguey - Golden Edition 2019 75cl

One of the most beautiful châteaux in Bordeaux, Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey dates back as far as the 13th century when it was used as a fortress. One of the estate’s most recently known owners was Sieur Raymond Peyraguey, after which the château was partially named and who purchased the property in 1618. The estate eventually added the name of its other owner, Monsieur Lafaurie, who bought it in 1796, over one century later. Its most recent owner is Silvio Denz, a Swiss entrepreneur, who also owns Péby Faugères and many other Bordeaux châteaux. The property is made up of 41 hectares of vines which are planted to 90% Sémillon, 8% Sauvignon Blanc and 2% Muscadelle. On average the vines have an age of 40 years old. Normally a favorite among Sauternes-lovers, Lafaurie-Peyraguey is known for its balance, offering notable layers of fruit but within frame that is weighed equally between richness and freshness.
