The Château de Fargues Lur Saluces 2009 is a luxurious Sauternes from the Lur Saluces family, crafted from botrytized Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc. This 2009 vintage displays a deep golden hue and a complex nose of honey, candied orange, dried fig, and exotic spices, with hints of toffee and minerality. On the palate, it is opulent and viscous, with concentrated sweetness balanced by vibrant acidity, delivering flavors of mango, pineapple, and botrytis-driven complexity. The finish is long and refined, with a chalky mineral backbone. Perfect with fruit tarts, foie gras, or blue cheeses, it offers a decadent experience. With over a decade of aging, it is drinking beautifully now but can evolve further over the next 15-20 years, making it a collector’s gem.
