2001 Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend more

5/8/2024 - Condrieu82 Likes this wine: 96 points

Pure hedonistic pleasure. This is singing right now. Intense nose of apricots, ripe nectarines, honeycomb. Lush and dense palate with dried apricots and honey, good acidity but intense sweet flavors. Long ending that lingers for quite a while. 2001 definitely a stunner - and this bottle showed better than my previous one a couple of years ago as it was more integrated and better composed. A long life ahead for this one. A crowd pleaser for sure.

Big sauternes nose. Beautiful but not huge.

Apricot, saffron, cashew nuts, roasted pineapples, candied tangerine, mango, and vanilla bean aromatics let you know you are in for a sweet, treat. Juxtaposed between candied, and vibrant, the wine is intense, racy, and sweet, leaving you with ripe, very ripe, and overripe pineapples, apricots, spice, honey, and vanilla bean. The wine is produced from 100% Semillon. Drink from 2029-2055. 95-97 Pts.

Lemongrass, white peaches, lemon rind, and flowers create the complex aromatics here. Vibrant, crisp, and citrusy, with a touch of crushed stone, adding complexity, this is good-to-go on release. The wine blends 60% Sauvignon Blanc, with 40% Semillon. Drink from 2025-2032. 92 Pts.

Glad I waited for my last bottle. The tertiaries are more prominent, honycomb, apricot, marmalade... the mouthfeel is oily and more viscous than previous years. There is even some tannin perceived on mid-palate. This was a lovely bottle.

94-96 Punkte. Eher zurückhaltend, jedoch mit Tiefgang, Datteln, Feigen, harzige Noten; ölige Textur, top Säure, der Wein zeigt Spannung und Dichte, endet ausgesprochen lang und wirkt top balanciert. Sehr hohe Qualität. (En Primeur Tasting April 2024)

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend more

Strong golden color. Pulled from the wine fridge at 45 degrees, let it sit for 30 minutes.

Crème brûlée, mango, peach on the nose, flowers emerging at the end. Just a succulent, welcoming scent.

Very sweet on the palate. Dried tropical fruits, of course, plenty of honey and caramel, some hints of citrus. Orange, of course. Delectable. Just sips are enough.

Wonderful finish, although I have had other vintages and vineyards produce longer ones and shorter ones. The finish of a Sauternes is one of my favorite parts of it.

Little bit of acidity, sometimes only just noticeable. A delicate Sauternes, elegant.

Have a 2006 and a 1990 coming soon from this same Chateau, looking forward to comparing. I still hold a 2015 Suduiraut as the best one I’ve had this year.

Caramel, a bit of baked apple. Sweet. Still on the young side, could use more age. I'd say this is a teenager of a wine. Powerful with great potential.

Thomas’s Northern Rhone extravaganza (Cabotte): An attractive bright orange colour. Soft caramel notes on the nose, which wasn't particularly demonstrative. Bright acidity and surprising grip on the palate, and plenty of toffee. It stood up well to the rich dessert.

Friday Group Brown Bag Tasting (EBCC): Half bottle. Light golden color. Notes of pineapple and apricot, with botrytis spice and mango as well. Full-bodied with a rich texture and flavors of apricot, marmalade, fresh pineapple and pear nectar with bright underlying acidity. Long finish. Excellent.

4/14/2024 - andrewfowler Likes this wine: 91 points

Orange peel, honey, a light chlorine that fades fast – I don't know why Sauternes always smells a bit like a swimming pool to me. Sweet of course, but shockingly light on the palate, with a long honeyed and Graham cracker finish. Marmalade emerges in glass, alongside sulphured papaya, caramel, pineapple, and white pepper. She's 22 and a real sweetie.

Golden hue. Aromas of apple, dried fig, golden raisin, honey, orange zest, peach. Full body and high acid. Mouth-coating and creamy texture on palate, with a slight mineral finish that begs for refills. Rich, decadent and delicious. 90% Semillon, 8% Sauvignon Blanc, 2% Muscadelle.

Syrah at Cabotte (Cabotte): On the burnt marmalade spectrum; surprisingly developed and really quite savoury in sauternes-terms. Amber in the glass; pretty vicious. If I had 'x' of these in my cellar I’d drink them up!

Very classy wine from a terrific vintage. Nose has barley sugar, lime juice steeped pineapple, some rhubarb and some subtle spearmint. Palate so unctuous and charming; beautiful balancing acidity and freshness. With air the nose reveals more layers; some macadamia, some grated fudge and hints of overripe mango. Love it.

Honeyed tropical flowers, white flowers, candied citrus, a touch of spice fill the nose, and sweet, fresh, orange, and candied-citrus palate. Served from the cellar with a slight chill and it is a perfect aperitif. Drink from 2024-2037.

Rich, intense, concentrated, sweet, racy, and lively, this has everything you want in a delicious sweet treat! Packed with honey coated yellow, and orange tropical fruits, lemon curd, vanilla, mango, and candied nuts from start to finish, the wine is zesty fresh, as well as sweet, and energetic. But it is going to be close to impossible to find, because production was decimated, with only 500 cases produced! Drink from 2025-2050.

Fabulous All Sauternes Tasting Dinner: Part Trois (Brad's Place, St. Paul, MN): Medium amber color. Drank a glass over an hour plus. Unripe melon, dried prange peels, Mandarin orange, deep and intense, layers of tart citrus and pineapple, toasty caramelized sugar, abundant spices, creamy pleasing texture. Much more vibrant than the '83 Rieussec next to it. Very nice. 93+ to 94pts.

25 Old Bordeaux grand cru classe - vertical (1920->) and horizontal semi blind wine tasting dinner (Copenhagen (Private)): A semi blind tasting of 25 right and left bank Grand cru Classé wines ranging from Mouton Rothschild to Chateau Cheval Blanc. 2/3 from 1920-1990 and the rest younger.

This wine: This vintage is better than 1990 which I rated 87. Pretty concentrated and nice on the nose, but the palate does not live up to the nose. I have tasted a lot better Sauternes.

This wine: Very concentrated. For my taste it is a little too tertiary. I like it younger. A matter of taste. I have tasted a lot better Sauternes. 1988 is better. I rated that 89

Deep amber in color. Dried honey, lemon peel, mango, and a touch of almond. Medium body, syrupy sweet, and only medium acidity which is not nearly enough for the RS. This results in a mild cloying effect. Still enjoyable but one of my least favorite Sauternes.
