Score 85/100 · Drink 2013, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Jun 2013
Ex-chateau bottle tasted blind in Sauternes. The nose on the Lamothe Despujols ’03 appears to be a little flat with dull, honeyed notes that lack definition. The palate is medium-bodied with a viscous opening of bitter orange and walnut but it seems rather flat with a slightly cloying finish. Only so-so. Drink now. Tasted April 2013.

Deep greenish gold. Low key nose. Stewed apple character. Not as intense as some. Perfectly respectable but a slightly burnt edge to it. Not the deepest flavoured. A little brulee on the finish too. (JR)
