Chateau Raymond-Lafon Sauternes Tasting Notes
This delicious, almost syrupy dessert wine is powerful, very rich and complex. A very fine wine.
Under a beautiful yellow dress, you can discover a fine and unctuous traditional Sauternes, final and creamy, very long on the palate, with exotic flavours of grapefruit, pineapple, banana, vanilla, apricot, candied lemon, or even spices, plum or honey depending on the vintage.
