Terrific fruit, both on the nose and the palate. Natural yeast in this biodynamic wine. Slight earthiness, great balance between fruit, tannins, acidity. Had with grilled, marinated flap steak. Yum. — a year ago

Pale gold in color; lemon, yellow apples, and peaches on the nose; high acidity; tastes like lemon zest; honeysuckle, and pear with a long finish. Nellie and I like it. Rayne did not. — 2 years ago

Lucky enough to have been invited to pillage the cellar of an old friend and came out of it with a 1975 and 1986 ch Rayne-Vingneau Sauternes. Both wonderful but the 86 was stunning, everything a late harvest wine can and should be. Fresh herbal aromas of tarragon, camphor, menthol and almond oil. Honeyed dried apricots in mid palate with do much more . Clean mineral and mediciinal finish. Very lush and lithe. Truly a standard bearer. — 7 years ago

I’m newly appreciative of Sauternes and found this to be a complex, drinkable wine. Good value — 13 days ago
