Château de Rayne-Vigneau Tasting Notes  
Classified as Premier Grand Cru Class? in 1855, Ch'teau de Rayne Vigneau is a Sauternes with a particularly intense style, both fresh and long on the palate. It is one of the benchmarks of its appellation.
Wine Spectator  
Bright aromas of lemon, spice and honey follow through to a full body, with loads of dried apricot, honey and nutmeg. Very sweet and very lively. An intense wine. The best from this estate in a long time. Best after 2012. ?James Suckling, 95 points
Wine Enthusiast  
While this wine is not powerful, it has elegance to go with the ripe fruit, fresh honey, lemon flavors and a core of dense dryness. With this vintage, Rayne Vigneau seems to be back where its vineyard, next to Yquem, suggests it should be. ?Roger Voss,
