Domaine Rousset-Peyraguey is a historic Sauternes estate situated on the Haut-Barsac plateau, immediately above Château d’Yquem in the commune of Bommes. The domaine has been run by Luc and Sandrine Servant since 1995, farming just over 7 hectares of vines planted mainly to Sémillon, with small amounts of Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. Viticulture is certified organic and practised biodynamically, with a focus on soil vitality, low yields, and multiple passes through the vineyard to pick only fully botrytised berries. The cellar work is slow and deliberate, with spontaneous fermentations, long ageing in oak, minimal sulphur, and no fining or filtration. Each cuvée represents a precise selection from the harvest, reflecting both the vintage character and the evolution of the botrytis on the vine.

Cuvée L’Aisthesis 2005 comes from middle-season selections, picked when botrytis concentration is high yet the grapes retain balancing acidity. Fermentation takes place in oak barrels, followed by long élevage on fine lees. The style is slightly more lifted and taut than Crème de Tête, showing fine tension, citrus peel, and spice over a concentrated botrytised core.
