Château la Rayre 2009 Premier Vin Red (Bergerac)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
A full and ripe wine that expresses the great 2005 vintage well. It is showing mature signs, with hints of dried fruits, raisins and spice over wood. The texture is dense, smooth, the layer of tannin blending well with the mature fruit.

Château la Rayre 2005 White (Monbazillac)
- Online Exclusive
From a great dessert wine year, this is packed with botrytis, unctuous in texture, rich and liquor-like. It is not for aging, but is delicious now.

Very herbaceous aromas are followed by a green, grassy flavor, feeling fat although with enough acidity. Pear and green plum fruits round out easily. It should have another few months in bottle.
