Vinous: 97 Points
The 2021 Clos Haut-Peyraguey is a riveting Sauternes. Orange confit, lemon peel, white flowers, tangerine oil, and mint soar across the palate. Exotic and floral overtones develop later, adding to the wine's sheer allure. Even with all of its plushness, the 2021 remains light on its feet. An explosion of heady aromas and flavors punctuates the dazzling finish.
James Suckling: 92 Points
Wax, sour cream, lemon curd and sweetened apricots. Sweet and direct on the palate with a medium to full body and a round, creamy finish. Slightly unctuous, but balanced with enough acidity to uphold the sugar.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
The 2021 Clos Haut-Peyraguey, a blend of 60% Sémillon and 40% Sauvignon Blanc, reveals a fruity, elegant bouquet of pineapple and exotic fruits and gentle hints of volatile acidity. Moderately weighted and juicy, it’s fresh and delicate with a short, ethereal finish.
