The Chateau Raymond-Lafon has a reticent nose at first that finds its voice after a few swirls of the glass, offering dried mango, almond and a touch of quince, all with fine delineation and intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with good acidity and tension, the minerality really coming through towards the beautifully composed finish. This is a very accomplished Raymond-Lafon that will repay cellaring. (5/ 2011)
Both freshness and richness are well combined in this elegant Sauternes. What it misses in weight, it gains in honey and apricot flavors. (6/ 2011)
