Score 91/100 · Drink 1991-2010, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

The 1975 is one of the finest de Fargues ever produced. It has the d’Yquem-like bouquet of coconuts, grilled nuts, ripe exotic fruit, and spicy oak. On the palate, the 1975 is much tighter structured and less evolved than the 1976. It has a lighter golden color and more acidity, but every bit as much concentration and richness. Anticipated maturity: Now-2010. Last tasted, 2/91.

The 1975 Château de Fargues is just a glorious mature Sauternes. Marmalade, quince and mandarin flourish on the nose with a light resinous background, as hints of vanilla develop with time. Superb delineation. The palate is vibrant with apricot, white peach, light saffron notes and a lick of Seville orange marmalade towards the elegant, refined finish. Superb. Tasted at the Académie du Vin dinner in Bordeaux.
