Marks and reviews

James Suckling

A dry, mineral white with sliced green apples, pears and honeysuckle. Mineral undertones on a medium to full body. Linear and fresh. Nice backbone of acidity. 60% sauvignon blanc and 40% semillon. Drink or hold.

/100

Yves Beck

Notes of grapefruit and lime in the bouquet of Lafaurie-Peyraguey, which stands out for its depth and tension. A flavoursome, savoury, lively and persistent wine.

James Lawther MW

60% Sauvignon Blanc, 40% Sémillon. 25 hl/ha. Cask sample. Citrus and tropical-fruit notes. Full, fleshy palate with lively acidity. More accessible than the 2022 at this stage. (JL)

Jeff Leve

Leve Jeff

Lemongrass, white peaches, lemon rind, and flowers create the complex aromatics here. Vibrant, crisp, and citrusy, with a touch of crushed stone adding complexity, this is good to go on release. The wine blends 60% Sauvignon Blanc with 40% Semillon. Drink from 2025–2032. 92 pts.

/100

Le Figaro Vin

Score: 87–89. The freshness of a spring meadow, a basket of sweet citrus, and more rustic notes of mint, basil, and tarragon contribute to an energetic bouquet, as does the palate, particularly taut.

Jane Anson

Suzanne Mustacich

Polished and expressive. Attractive palate of citrus and Victoria pineapple, touches of white flowers, savoury and smooth. Produced from just 1.47 hectares, producing 4700 bottles.
