A hedonistic sweet wine reviewed by the critic James Suckling as follows, `Pear pie and blanched almond on the nose. Full-bodied and medium sweet, with a subtle spice, honey and sliced apple character. Like sorbet.`

Vinous
The 2009 de Fargues is very refined and detailed on the nose with pure botrytised fruit, quince and honeysuckle, developing waxy aromas with continued aeration. The palate is well balanced with a killer line of acidity that reminds me of Coutet. Great depth and penetration here. This is a marvelous, quite magisterial Sauternes that should age many many years. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting.
