Château Lamothe Château LAMOTHE - Liquoreux - 2003

Remarkable Sauternes 2003, all in bouquet, beautiful dress, dense, with subtle floral connotations, deep and persistent mouth, very fine combining power and distinction. (Guide DUSSERT-GERBER 2013). Rich and honeyed. 17,5/20 - (Guide d'achat des crus RVF 2009 - septembre 2009). Light golden color with a beautiful limpidity. The nose clearly evokes candied fruits: apricot, grape, quince. In mouth, a relatively important concentration is well counterbalanced by the freshness. A traditional Sauternes, sweet, with great ageing potential. 91/100 - (Guide Gilbert & Gaillard 2008). Lamothe 2003 is a monster of power to wait for. 15,5/20 - (GaultMillau 2007). In the classic cuvée, good value for money, the 2003 is a superb wine, both candied and structured. 16,5/20 - (La Revue du Vin de France 2007). The sweet Wines of Barsac and Sauternes 88/100 - (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate - April 24th 2006). As often at this time, still a little cloudy, but floral on the nose, quite fine, vine peach. Elegant and quite powerful in the mouth. O = 2008 G = 20 years 14,5 /20 - Lost of pears and hints of apples on the nose. Full-bodied, very sweet, with a thick and rich, medium creamy texture. 89-91/100 - (James Suckling - Wine Spectator 2003).
