Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey
Sauternes - 1er Grand Cru Classé
Description
Classified as a Sauternes Premier Cru in 1855, Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey is one of the icons that should feature amoung your collection. It is the fruit of a famed terroir made of silica, gravel and clay soils and the Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle vines are carefully cultivated without herbicides. The hand-harvested grapes are vinified in French oak barrels. The wine is then aged in barrels whose proportion of new wood oscillates between 40% and 70%. Powerful, complex and persistent, this is a true wine to savour in peace and quiet.
