Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey 2020, Sauternes, Premier Grand Cru Classé 

On the nose, fresh, beautiful, nicely fresh/branded and offers freshness as well as complexity. It reveals notes of lime, candied citrus and more lightly vine peach combined with hints of fresh/crisp pear, fresh berries as well as hints of gunflint, white flowers and discreet spice. On the palate, fresh, fruity and offers minerality, a nice definition, an edgy side, a nice freshness as well as some complexity, some power (in finesse), depth. The wine expresses notes of candied apple, crystallized lemon and more lightly yuzu associated with hints of spice, tart/juicy white berries as well as touches of white flowers, carambola, fine spice, almond, a subtle waft of vanilla and an imperceptible hint of acacia (in the background). Good length.
