Reviewed May 2022This is intense and compact with lots of mushroom, ginseng, lemon grass, dried lemon peel, tangerine, clove and white chocolate. Green mango, too. Complex and layered. Sweet, but with a savory edge and fantastic freshness. The sweetness is hidden by the botrytis power. Extremely long.

Lively and exciting on the palate, this has energy and so much appeal in the delivery of sugary sweetness, lemon zest and spiced edges. I love the playful nature, it's quite linear and direct at the moment, less expansive than some others, taut and focused but with good power, direction and detail. Will be nice to retaste in bottle.

The Wine Independent
A blend of 85% Sémillon and 15% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2021 Sigalas Rabaud has a pale lemon-straw color. It is a little closed to start with notes of lime blossoms and honeysuckle leading to a core of Bosc pears and Golden delicious apples, with a waft of lemongrass. The palate is very bright, with wonderful freshness and purity, finishing on a lingering, apple butter note. (LPB)

The 2021 Château Sigalas Rabaud is another Sauternes with outstanding potential. Ripe, honeyed orange, peach, apricot, and some caramelized notes define the bouquet, and it's medium-bodied, plush, and textured, while still showing good acidity. It should be rock solid.
