Chateau Sigalas Rabaud - Premier Cru Sauternes 2008 (375ml)
Wine Enthusiast: 93 Points
On the dry side, this is powerful textured, a firm ripe wine that has big botrytis flavors, a very dry core. Obviously a wine for aging.

Composed of 95% Semillon and 5% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2008 Sigalas Rabaud features a pale lemon-gold color and nose of warm pineapple, guava and peach preserves with touches of honeycomb and toast. Elegant in the mouth with a lively backbone, it is drinking beautifully now, with complex earthy notions coming through on the long finish.
James Suckling: 91 Points
This shows really good intensity on the palate for the vintage with loads of honey, dried lemons and apricot tart. Medium to full-body, medium sweet and a dense and fresh finish. Semi-oily mouth feel. Why wait?
