The nose is generous and layered, with notes of ripe apricot, candied citrus, honey, white flowers, and subtle botrytis-driven spice, all lifted by a clean, noble brightness.\n\nOn the palate, it balances silky sweetness with lively acidity, giving the wine depth without heaviness. Expect flavors of peach, marmalade, tropical fruit, and toasted almond, with a lingering finish that should develop beautifully over time. Thanks to its structure and concentration, Clos Haut Peyraguey 2020 has excellent aging potential and can reward cellaring for many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClos Haut Peyraguey comes from 16 hectares of Sauternes vineyards on the higher slopes of Bommes, where the terroir benefits from the conditions needed for noble rot and slow ripening. The estate’s careful vineyard management is especially important in vintages that demand precision, helping ensure healthy fruit selection and ideal maturity. The wine is crafted from Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc using the traditional Sauternes approach, with harvested grapes selected for concentration and vinified to preserve both sweetness and freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine is a classic match for foie gras, blue cheese, fruit-based desserts, tarte Tatin, or simply fresh stone fruit and pastries. It also works wonderfully with roasted peaches, almond tart, or crème brûlée. Serve well chilled at around 8–10°C, and decanting is usually not necessary, though a brief aeration can help younger bottles open up more quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClos Haut Peyraguey is a historic Sauternes estate whose origins trace back to an old barony acquired in the 18th century. After the estate was divided in 1879, the higher vineyards on the Bommes hill became known as Clos Haut-Peyraguey, while the name Lafaurie-Peyraguey was retained for the other portion. Since 2012, the property has belonged to Bernard Magrez, and the estate continues to uphold its reputation as a cru classé from the 1855 classification.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clos Haut Peyraguey","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54266332184913,"sku":"XW-61688","price":31.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/clos-haut-peyraguey-sauternes-2020-1","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
