Medium yellow. Very pure aromas of ripe peach, lime and flowers, with a mineral component and roasted botrytis tones. Penetrating and perfumed in the mouth, with terrific cut and energy to its mineral-driven stone and citrus fruit flavors. Conveys a strong impression of calcaire energy. Wonderfully balanced, deep, very long wine with terrific finishing arip and aromatic clarity.

Lots of botrytis spice and clove honey, with hints of dried lemon. Full-bodied and medium sweet, with honey and cooked apple flavors. Spicy and long, with just a hint of vanilla.

Tasted blind at the 10-Year On Tasting in Sauternes. The 2005 Château Nairac has a little flatness on the nose compared to its peers: honey and marmalade at first, a touch of persimmon, but it needs a little more tension. The palate is well balanced with a viscous opening, rich in the mouth with tangy marmalade and orange peel notes, though missing some persistence on the finish. I suspect there are better bottles out there, hence the plus-sign against my score.
