JEB DUNNUCK: "Revealing a deeper gold hue, the 100% Semillon 2023 Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey has a ripe, decadent bouquet of caramelized pineapple, honeyed mint, spice, and candied orange. It's a rich, powerful, full-bodied monster of a Sauternes offering terrific sweetness, bright, integrated acidity, and a great finish. Count me impressed. It's another heavenly sweet wine in the vintage."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "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."

VINUM: "Eher zurückhaltend, jedoch mit Tiefgang, Datteln, Feigen, harzige Noten; ölige Textur, Topsäure, der Wein zeigt Spannung und Dichte, endet ausgesprochen lang und wirkt top ausbalanciert. Sehr hohe Qualität."

JAMES SUCKLING: "A dense and very intense Sauternes with spiced pear, apple and orange peel. Caramel and spice with some brown sugar. Full and deep. Very sweet. Flavorful finish. Shows depth and intensity. 160 g/L residual sugar. Reminds me of 2003. 100% semillon."

JANCIS ROBINSON: "Golden colour. Rich and complex with citrus, marmalade and peach notes. Sweet and lush on the palate but the acidity comes through to give balance. Plenty of botrytised character. Surprisingly fresh on the finish given the RS. Drink 2027 – 2050."
