Critic reviews
"The 2023 Clos Haut-Peyraguey has a more resinous, waxier bouquet than its peers due to the expressiveness of the 95% Sémillon. The palate is very viscous on the entry, harmonious and pure. There’s plenty of botrytized fruit, with superb tension and energy coiled up on the finish. This is an excellent Sauternes that should age gracefully in bottle. Recommended."

"The 2023 Clos Haut-Peyraguey is captivating. Scents of apricot, spice, tangerine peel, honey, marzipan and passion fruit caress the palate. There's a greater focus on freshness these days, but Clos Haut-Peyraguey remains one of the more extroverted wines in Sauternes, as witnessed by its 164 grams of residual sugar. Some of that is surely a reflection of the year in this particular case. Even with its initial exuberance, the 2023 finishes with fine energy and tension."

"A young Sauternes with a solid center-palate of dried apple, apricot, spice and candied lemon. Medium- to full-bodied, sweet and bright. Attractive focus to this."
