A direct wine, its acidity very linear to go with the dark tannins. The fruit is juicy, very black currant, with a stalky character. This is classic food-friendly Bordeaux, with a bright but dry finish.

This is a wonderful, dense wine, very concentrated, very intensely flavored. At this stage of its development, it is the opulence which is most evident, but there are already hints that it will show pure fruit alongside sweet tannins, and will develop complexity.

92-94 Herbaceous style of wine, a Bordeaux white wine classic style, with crisp grassy Sauvignon Blanc flavors, elegant, not heavy.

A soft, open wine that is already showing its generous, fruity side. There is lively acidity as well, and the aftertaste is fresh, soft and easy.

In 2000, this was still the property of Lily Lacoste, who also owned Pétrus. Latour à Pomerol was sold in 2001 to a Catholic charity. The management, then and now, is with the Moueix family who make the most of the fabulous vineyard. The 2000 is a hugely opulent, velvet textured wine, but it retains hints of the elegance that is the hallmark of this property.

92-94 Full of toasty flavors, this is a structured, wood and ripe fruit dominated wine. It has weight, while also feeling fresh. Great final spice and pear flavors.

Typical of the huge power of Guiraud, this is one of the richest Sauternes in 2005. The wine is rich and intense, the dry edge of botrytis just dominating the sweetness. Flavors of honey, almonds and peaches give the wine extra complexity.
