The 2001 vintage was an exceptional year for Sauternes, producing sweet wines with incredible balance and richness. The weather conditions were favourable for the development of noble rot, which is essential for the production of the region’s renowned sweet wines. Given the exceptional quality of the 2001 vintage, this Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey still has excellent ageing potential, and the wine can continue to evolve and improve in the bottle. To enjoy it at its best, serve it chilled and pair it with rich dishes such as foie gras, blue cheese, or fruit-based desserts.

The 2001 Lafaurie-Peyraguey, which just predates Silvio Denz’s ownership, has an attractive nose of dried honey, praline and walnut, displaying good intensity though not amazingly complex. The palate is well balanced with a viscous opening, fine acidity and a touch of orange peel and spicebox toward the finish. Elegant and refined, but it needs a little more length.
