One of the finest examples I tasted from this vintage (which is not nearly as bad as many had predicted), the light gold-colored 2000 Lafaurie-Peyraguey makes a big, tactile impression on the palate. Characteristics of tropical fruit, caramel, orange marmalade, and buttered citrus emerge from this full-bodied, evolved Sauternes. It is best drunk during its first 10-15 years of life.

01: Mittleres Gelb; leuchtend. Intensives, mineralisches Bouquet; feine Kalknote, helle Früchte (Karambole). Saftiger, eleganter Gaumen, weiche Textur mit Akazienhonig, im Finale wieder eine mineralische, leicht medizinale Note; elegant ausklingend. 16/20 2002 – 2020
