Renowned for crafting luscious vintage sweet wines, the Arche Lafaurie Cuvee Madame 2005 signals a triumphant return to form. This vintage was meticulously produced in the esteemed vineyards of Sauternes, France, by revered winemakers Arche and Lafaurie. An apex in craftsmanship, the wine's unflinching adherence to traditional methods affirms its quality. Partially botrytised Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes were meticulously handpicked, then painstakingly fermented in oak barrels, allowing the wine to develop a rich, complex flavour profile. The Arche Lafaurie Cuvee Madame 2005 sings with aromatic notes of honey, apricot, and spice, supported by undertones of roasted nuts, marmalade, and tropical fruits. With its luxuriously silken texture, and resonant, long finish, it exudes opulence. Best served slightly chilled, this wine is a testament to the sublime heights that can be reached when time-honoured winemaking practices are perfectly executed. Expect to be completely transported with every sip of the Arche Lafaurie Cuvee Madame 2005. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (86-88)Red-ruby. Aromas ripe of plum, maple syrup, tobacco, hot stones and spicy oak. Soft but substantial, with easygoing flavors of moderate depth. Still some acidity to lose. Finishes with ripe tannins and good persistence. |

James Suckling (93)Intense aromas of sliced mushrooms, blackberries and spices follow through to a full body, with sweet, ripe fruit, velvety tannins and a fresh clean finish. Tangy and fresh. Best ever from here and one of the values of the vintage. Best in 2016. |

The Wine Cellar Insider (93)Ripe, lush, sweet, dark red fruits, silky textures and a long, earthy, fruit-filled finish, with a blast of licorice, dark cocoa and black cherries in the finish. This could be the best vintage of d'Aiguilhe produced yet! |

Jeb Dunnuck (92)Black cherries, spicy oak, chalky minerality, and hints of white truffle all emerge from the 2019 Château D'Aiguilhe, an elegant, beautifully balanced, seamless 2019 from the Castillon region. It has plenty of ripeness, medium body, present tannins, and the balance and class to keep for 10-15 years. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92)The 2020 d'Aiguilhe captures all of the exuberance of the vintage. Jammy and explosive, the 2020 offers up a heady mélange of raspberry preserves, mocha, spice and rose petal. This lush, extravagantly rich wine is a real beauty, but the style is definitely pushed in the direction of ripeness and textural intensity. Give the tannins a few years to soften. |
