Bettane & Desseauve 97-98 / 100 par Bettane & Desseauve le 03/05/2017 Tous les échantillons dégustés concordent, dans ce millésime réussi partout en sauternais, Sigalas montre encore plus de finesse aérienne que ses pairs et se rapproche dans son toucher de bouche et sa perfection formelle d’Yquem.
Wine Spectator 90-93 / 100 par James Molesworth le 28/04/2017 A fresh style, with white peach, green plum and pineapple notes that set it apart from its more typical brethren, with verbena and honeysuckle through the bright and less obviously sweet finish.—J.M.
Wine Advocate 92-94 / 100 par Neal Martin le 28/04/2017 The 2016 Château Sigalas-Rabaud felt a little straightforward on the nose, floral but just missing the depth and concentration of its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with tangerine and clementine on the entry, a tang of lemongrass towards the finish that perks things up and suggests that there is better to come once this Sauternes is in bottle
matthewjukes.com 16 / 20 par Matthew Jukes le 25/04/2017 (100 Semillon) Simple and rather dilute this is a disappointing wine with a distinct lack of focus. 16
Jancis Robinson 16,5 / 20 par Jancis Robinson le 21/04/2017 Lots of acidity dominates the nose. Heavy charges of both sweetness and acidity are not yet married – more like lemon cough sweets for the moment. Drink 2026-204016.5+
Jamessuckling.com 91-92 / 100 par James Suckling le 05/04/2017 Very sweet and linear with sliced-lemon and cooked-apple character. Some nice botrytis character.
