2009 Château Raymond-Lafon

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Monday, April 18, 2016 - Dessert wines with Wayne and Brodie: Relatively light gold. Aromas of citrus, honey, toffee apple and mixed spice. On palate, viscous, unctuous and clearly a fully ripe Sauternes, reflecting the vintage. Good fruit weight and structure. Clean and pure. The flavours were lemon, honey, apricots and tinned pineapple chunks. Not yet very complex and only moderately long. Acceptable acidity. I wouldn't think that this vintage would be ultra-long lived. 3/3 of the Sauternes here.
