A complex and indulgent Sauternes grand wine
The property
First Classified Growth of Sauternes in 1855, the Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey is among the most prestigious names of the iconic sweet wine appellation located south of the Bordeaux region.
The vineyard
Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey boasts an exceptional terroir with a 30-hectare vineyard exclusively dedicated to the production of its First Classified Growth of Sauternes.
The vintage
In Sauternes, humidity was felt more strongly than in other appellations in 2019, thus reducing water stress on the vines. After a rainy period, the warm days of September allowed the botrytis cinerea to develop well and promote the concentration of the berries.
Vinification and aging
Maceration of 10 to 15 days in 225-liter French oak barrels. Aging for 12 months in 225-liter barrels (including 1/3 new) followed by an additional 6 months of aging in stainless steel tanks.
Blend
Sémillon (93%), sauvignon blanc (7%)
