There is no way more memorable in finishing a meal than with a
glass of Chateau d’Yquem ( with foie gras, of course). For sure its rare deliciousness
and relative scarcity make it punishingly expensive. But don’t be dismayed, for
another choice in a great Sauternes that won’t break the bank is Chateau
Lafurie-Peyraguey.
The chairman of the Lalique group (and oenophile) has opened
a new hotel and restaurant 32 miles south of the city of Bordeaux, in the heart
of the Sauternes country, the 400 year old, honey-colored stone façade hotel has been redone ( with 13 rooms and suites)
and is welcoming guests who enjoy fine wines and food in an setting surrounded
by some of the world’s best known vineyards.
