Ch. LaFaurie Peyraguey Sauternes 2003
Other Dessert
from Sauternes and Barsac, France - Bordeaux
winemaker's notes:
Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines of 2006 - #6!
"LaFaurie-Peyraguey has produced some of Sauternes' most powerful wines for more than two decades. The 2003 is no exception—Bordeaux's hottest summer on record produced a full-bodied dessert wine with incredibly intense apricot and honey aromas. To achieve that concentration, the château uses more than 90 percent Sémillon, planted on 100 acres of gravel."
