We chanced upon this winery making our way to Sauternes to find the bed and breakfast we booked for our accidental side trip there. It was also a Magrez property, so ending the day as we started (as we visited Pape Clement that day). Part of the original Chateau Peyraguey when it was classified Premier Grand Cru Classe in 1855, the estate was split in 1879 into two with the other half being Chateau Laufaurie-Peyraguey. It became a Magrez property in 2012.
This was the wine we tasted at the end of the flight that day. It was a nice yellow brass colour, with a sweet luscious acid and fruity nose.The palate was sweet acid and fruity with an acid sweet backbone extending into a long finish.
