Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2001

Tonight's foie gras and Sauternes tasting: my rank 2 of 4. Group no. 3. Light amber glow. Tight at first but unwinds to caramel aromas and hints of brininess. Stylish viscous mouthfeel with soft salted caramel flavors. Thick lingering finish. — 11 years ago

Cuvée Prestige Sous la Roche Savagnin 2009

2009. Nutty & high acid - even somewhat volatile. Perfection with that black truffle/foie gras chicken pot pie hiding back there. #getgoutorgetout — 11 years ago

First experience w/ the classic foie gras pairing. Knock your socks off good! Honeysuckle, citrus -sweetness balanced by acidity. Not cloying in the least. Wonderful viscosity and mouthfeel. — 12 years ago
