The 2007 Château de Rayne-Vigneau offers pure peach, apricot and quince on the nose; this is fairly nuanced at first and nicely focused. The palate is well balanced with a light tang of marmalade on the entry, very cohesive with notes of quince, orange rind and hints of ginger emerging with time in the glass. Well-defined and focused on the finish, this lingers in the mouth. This is a classy Sauternes that is probably now à point. Tasted at the 2007 horizontal in Sauternes.
