94-96. Barrel sample. There is great freshness in this wine, which also has ample weight and complex, rich fruit. It’s powered by acidity, remaining lively and bright, and is likely to age well.

93-95 A ripe, balanced wine, the acidity casting a light over the rich apricot, mango and apple juice flavors. Spiced with wood, never excessive.

- Online Exclusive
A lemon zest flavor cuts through this delicate wine. It has lively sweetness and flavors of lemon curd and bitter orange that lace the note of honey. There is much more concentration to come in the future.

Château de Rayne Vigneau 2005 White (Sauternes)
While this wine is not powerful, it has elegance to go with the ripe fruit, fresh honey, lemon flavors and a core of dense dryness. With this vintage, Rayne Vigneau seems to be back where its vineyard, next to Yquem, suggests it should be.
