Château d'Arche 2011 Barrel sample White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
92-94. Barrel sample. An impressive wine that has weight and intense botrytis notes. Its acidity gives a delicious lift to its powerful flavors of yellow fruits, tangerines and light wood spices.

Château d'Arche 2009 Barrel sample White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
91-93 Barrel sample. Strong botrytis, very rich, totally honeyed. This is a powerful wine, very straight in its style, packed with the sweetest apricot jam.

Château d'Arche 2010 Barrel sample White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
91-93 Rich more than dry, the palate a very spicy character, the texture full, unctuous, but more than just sweet.

Château d'Arche 2005 Barrel sample White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
90-92 Barrel sample. A well-balanced, concentrated wine, full of botrytis flavors: richness, poised honey and lemon. This is going to be an impressive wine for a second growth—in about 10 years—but already shows signs of greatness.
— R.V.

Château d'Arche 2006 Barrel sample White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
89—91 Barrel sample. Layers of richness here, underpinned by fresh acidity. The dense botrytis is very dominant, leaving the green pear and peach flavors as second rans.

Château d'Arche 2007 White (Sauternes)
A tight wine, its sweet fruit rolling around between the texture of pear skins. There is freshness here, the acidity and the dry botrytis taking away from any huge sweetness.
— R.V.

Château d'Arche 2008 Barrel sample White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
87-89 Barrel sample. Firm, ripe, densely structured, giving what is almost a meal in itself. The texture is dry, also rich, powerful.

Château d'Arche 2006 White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
This is certainly a rich wine, the yellow peach flavors ripe and concentrated. But there is also a hard core where the botrytis dominates and makes for a tight character. It is missing charm.
