Chateau Lafaurie Peyraguey 2006

Lafaurie-Peyraguey is located in the commune of Bommes and its 40 hectares of vineyards are planted with 90% Sémillon, 5% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% Muscadelle. Lafaurie-Peyraguey severely restricted the yields, introduced more rigorous selection procedures at harvest time and initiated fermentation and maturation in oak casks.

Lafaurie-Peyraguey is now unquestionably one of the top half-dozen estates in Sauternes. It is now no longer owned by the Cordier family but has passed into the hands of the Société Foncier des Domaines Cordier, which also owns Château Meyney in St-Estèphe and Clos des Jacobins in St-Emilion.
