Château Lafaurie Peyraguey 2009 Barrel sample White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
95-97 Barrel sample. Very gold in color, this is a wine that seems initially closed, tight, only slowly showing its full panoply of richness, density and sweet final acidity.

Château Lafaurie Peyraguey 2007 White (Sauternes)
- Cellar Selection
Packed with botrytis, this is a wine whose sweetness is suppressed by richness. Flavors of bitter oranges and white figs go with the intense core of botrytis, followed by a touch of bright acidity. This is a wine whose journey is just beginning.

Château Lafaurie Peyraguey 2005 White (Sauternes)
Classic Sauternes, treading the fine line between sweetness and elegance. Initially, it seems to be dominated by the botrytis, but then sweet fruits also show, with ripe yellow fruits, honey and almonds, touched with citrus. As it develops, the wine will become richer and more intense.

Château Lafaurie Peyraguey 2011 Barrel Sample White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
91-93. Barrel sample. A beautifully-fresh wine, with its acidity cutting through the weight of its smooth fruit—like scissors cutting through velvet. Intense, with spice and acidity showing through on the finish.
— R.V.

Château Lafaurie Peyraguey 2006 White (Sauternes)
- Online Exclusive
The wine starts lively, almost fresh. Only after a while in the mouth do you taste the intense richness underneath. The structure is of pear skins, with white fig and sweet dried apricot syrup. The botrytis, dry at the heart of the wine, gives the whole ensemble great balance.
