Vinous Media: 93 Points
The 2020 Lions de Suduiraut is a gorgeous, approachable Sauternes that emphasizes bright, floral accents. Tangerine oil, almond, dried flowers, light honeyed notes and apricot all grace this airy, wonderfully nuanced Sauternes. The 2020 is 90% Semillon and 10% Sauvignon Blanc. This is simply impeccable.
Wine Spectator: 89 Points
Unctuous, with peach, cobbler, nectarine and apricot notes backed by pie crust and ginger through the spice-tinged finish. Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc.
