La Tour Blanche 2001 mature-vintage noble sweet wine produced in the Sauternes appellation of Bordeaux. Château La Tour Blanche is classified as a Premier Cru Classé, according to the 1855 Classification of Sauternes and Barsac. The property has long held a good reputation among aficionados for producing Sauternes of extraordinary value compared with such illustrious names as Yquem. The 2001 is one of the finest efforts from the property since the turn of the century. "The 2001 La Tour Blanche has a finely knit bouquet of yellow flowers mixed with wild honey, acacia and white peach. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity and almost unctuous in the mouth, showing what feels like more residual sugar than its peers. Voluminous and mouth-filling on the finish … this is a hedonistic delight." Vinous, 2021
- The 2001 La Tour Blanche has a finely knit bouquet of yellow flowers mixed with wild honey, acacia and white peach. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity and almost unctuous in the mouth, showing what feels like more residual sugar than its peers. Voluminous and mouth-filling on the finish but missing the tension that would take it up a level. Still, this is a hedonistic delight.
