The 2005 Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey is certainly outstanding, and it's probably in the middle of its prime drinking window. Grilled apricots, honeyed orange, grilled bread, and subtle caramelized peach notes all define the bouquet, and it's medium-bodied, with a pure, layered, elegant texture, plenty of sweetness, and sufficient acidity to keep this clean, lively, and incredibly enjoyable. It will evolve for another 10-15 years, but it's terrific today.
