I have looked for Sauternes/Barsac ratings for the 1995 vintage and can't find any. Is anybody able to help me out? Mr. Suckling?

Climens
Yquem
Rieussec
La Tour Blanche

There was no 1995. Things looked so bad at the end of 1994 that it was decided to completely skip 1995 and see if 1996 would be a little better. That's why there are no 1995 calendars and no existing thirteen year olds.

I'm surprised you don't remember that.

Doesn't sound like a good idea.
Looked-up the wines in Rene Gabriel's Bordeaux book:
Climens 15/20
Yquem 17/20
Rieussec 16/20
La Tour Blanche 15/20

15/20 is just above 'drinkable'
