The 2024 Clos Haut-Peyraguey is the result of three picks from September 19 to October 16, with most of the fruit coming from the middle pick. Readers will find a heady, dense Sauternes with a distinctly structural, almost tannic feel. The 130 grams of residual sugar are very nicely integrated into the wine's frame. Apricot, chamomile, spice, pineapple, passion fruit and a kiss of French oak linger on the imposing finish. Superb. Tasted three times. Score: 94 - 96 Antonio Galloni, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2029-2044 Sharp and focused, this has plenty of grip and lift, orange zest and powerful saffron spice, superb quality, these are lovely wines. 14 hl/ha, 90% in oak of which 1/3 is new. Score: 94 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2026-2038 The 2024 Clos Haut-Peyraguey has a well-defined nose that lacks the complexity of some of its peers. Wild honey, quince and light almond scents unfold in the glass. The palate is fresh and clinical on the entry, with apricot mixed with notes of tangerine, although I would like to see more nuance on the slightly short yet refreshing finish. Score: 91 - 93 Neal Martin, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2026-2046 |

The 2024 Coutet is a dense, voluptuous Sauternes. Orange peel, apricot jam, passion fruit, pineapple and white flowers convey tons of exoticism. Ample and resonant on the palate, with superb depth, Coutet is outstanding in 2024. Score: 94 - 96 Antonio Galloni, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2028-2044 Delivers texture and flesh, love the aromatics that are sweet without being heavy, this has restraint and carefully-measured fleshy fruits, nectarine, pineapple, white peaches, lime zest, gunsmoke, perfectly-judged acidities. One of the wines of the vintage, great stuff from Philippe and Aline Baly. Score: 97 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2026-2038 The 2024 Coutet was picked over six tries although the final ones were not used with 134 g/L residual sugar this year. It has quite an intense bouquet with beautifully defined lemon thyme and light peach aromas. The palate is well balanced with a vivacious opening, lively apricot and quince notes and concentration effortlessly offset by the silver thread of acidity. Composed and persistent on the finish, this is a superb Coutet. Score: 94 - 96 Neal Martin, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2028-2055 |

The 2024 Doisy-Daëne is redolent of apricot, tangerine oil, baked apple tart, pineapple and spice. Bold and luscious in feel, Doisy-Daëne is quite overt in 2024. It offers ample body to match its abundant curves and sexy, flamboyant profile. Tasted two times. Score: 92 - 95 Antonio Galloni, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2029-2044 Bright, vivid, beautiful depth, lime zest, saffron, juicy and luscious, this majors on orange peel, pineapple and mango, mouthwatering finish, exceptional quality. Olivier And Eric Casteja. 9 hl/ha yield, Barsac location. Score: 95 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2026-2038 The 2024 Doisy-Daëne is a little more backward on the nose than expected, with finely delineated peach skin, beeswax and wild honey scents emerging with time. The palate is well balanced with a very peachy opening, then apricot and quince join the chorus line. As usual, the acidic thread keeps this Barsac on its toes and there is real intensity and sustain on the finish that leaves you wanting more. Bravo. Score: 94 - 96 Neal Martin, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2028-2055 |
