A classic Sauternes from Château Nairac, the 2001 vintage was reviewed by the Wine Spectator as follows, `Intensely botrytised, with loads of allspice and mineral character, yet lively and exciting. Full-bodied, racy and very long. Fresh sweetness.`

Vinous
The 2001 Nairac has a curious nose of lavender and potpourri plus touches of peppermint that rather obscures the terroir profile and/or sense of typicité. The palate is well balanced but straightforward, offering tangy marmalade and quince and a touch of spice, yet it does not quite kick on toward the finish, which is missing some complexity. Where will it go from here? Neal Martin1st September 2021
