The 2001 Château de Myrat has a relatively light but focused bouquet of yellow flowers, Aszú and saffron notes; touches of almond and French patisserie come through with time. The palate is well balanced with a viscous opening. Tangy marmalade, quince and orange peel intermingle with saffron and subtle ginger notes, fanning out with confidence toward the finish. This is maturing with style and panache, one of several Sauternes that has meliorated in recent years. Score: 92 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2021 - 2040 01 September 2021 |

The Chateau de Myrat has an attractive floral bouquet with quince and dried honey, developing spicy tones with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp citrus fruit, plenty of orange zest and dried quince, leading to a cohesive and quite persistency finish. This is ageing well and I can envisage this giving plenty of pleasure to Sauternes-lovers over the next decade. Score: 90 Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2014-2024 01 October 2014 |

This is very ripe, with a sweet and sour character of lemon, limes and maple syrup. Full-bodied, sweet and tangy. Very rich and long. Sweet and wild. Extremely well done. Best after 2007. Score: 93 James Suckling, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2007+ 15 September 2004 |
