2013 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY (barrel sample) 93p
Fine intensity of botrytised flavors, great acidity and minerality, very complex with impressive length. Splendid effort for the vintage.
2012 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY (barrel sample) 90p
Significantly lighter than recent vintages with less intensity of botrytised flavour, sweetness and acidity. It displayed elegance, finesse and supple body. Tasted in April 2013.
2011 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY (barrel sample) 94+p
This wine had plenty of botrytised flavors like pineapple, lemon peel and grapefruit, excellent acidity, strong structure, superb balance and long honeyed finish. Fabulous wine. Tasted in April 2012.
2010 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY (barrel sample) 95-96p
This wine had extremely intense nose of grapefruit, acacia honey and apricot, excellent acidity and balance, great depth, lot of sweetness and long, long lingering aftertaste. Simply stunning wine. Tasted in April 2011.

2008 LAFAURI
E PEYRAGUEY (barrel sample) 90-93pThis wine showed spicy flavours, oak, power and strong backbone and long aftertaste. One to watch in the future. Tasted in March 2009.
2007 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY (barrel sample) 90-91p
Pretty good wine, but seemed a bit light. I’m convinced however, that it will take on more weight when in bottle. Tasted in April 2008.
2006 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY (barrel sample) 92p
Beautiful and powerful botrytised flavors of aromatic pineapple, pear and apricots on the nose and palate. Very stylish and delicious wine. Tasted in March 2007
2005 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY 93+p
This is one of the most reliable properties in the district, who mix power and elegance in beautiful way. It seemed to follow in 2001 vintage's tracks with excellently botrytised fruit flavours of apricots, peaches, oranges/orange peel, lusciousness, refinement, super elegance and exquisite balance. Gorgeous wine for keeping in the next 15-20 years. Tasted three times - last time in March 2014. Consistent notes.
2003 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY 90p
I have actually expected a more energetic wine with more concentration than one tasted at the day. Even if it has excellent noble rot, lusciousness, super elegance and fine balance, this wine seems however to be a bit flat and lacks some freshness, and shows slightly under the level of this property’s capacity. Maybe this wine just needs some more time in the bottle. Have to retaste it soon. One to lay down for 10-15 years horisontally. Tasted in March 2006
2001 LAFAURIE PEYRAGUEY 95p
What a thrilling botrytised flavours, elegance and finesse. Incredibly rich, dense and long on the palate. A beautiful example of this vintage's potential. Tasted twice - last time in March 2008. Consistent notes.
Fantastic double blast from the past - March 2008
