Lea & Sandeman review
Rich, very sweet, intense but could do with more focus. Nevertheless it is intense and the length is there. 91/100Other reviews and comments
The sample was cloudy and the nose not quite in focus, but the very fresh acidity is positive. There is great sweetness but also purity and breed, but it is not quite together yet. The rating could go higher once the wine comes into focus.

Deep bronze. Lots of depth, richness, burnt caramel and glory. This is serious stuff! Tingle and great intensity with a hint of ripe pears. Long and reverberant. Great clarity – and muscularity

The 2007 Lafaurie-Peyraguey has fulfilled all my expectations since its impressive primeur showing. It is has a light, succinct nose with white peach, pear, apple-blossom and a touch of chalk dust. Good definition, although it needs a little more vitality. The palate is superb: very vibrant on the entry, marmalade, quince, mandarin and a touch of ginger, just a little disjointed towards the finish, good length. Time in bottle will allow this to coalesce. Drink 2014-2030.
