2015 Chateau d'Yquem Sauternes 750ml
“The nose opens with electric notes of ripe pineapples, green mango, orange blossoms, and lemon tart with hints of fungi, lime zest, crushed rocks, and jasmine. The freshness on the palate is just astonishing, permeating and lifting layer upon layer of tropical fruits and earthy notions, all encased in a sumptuous texture and culminating in a very, very long, mineral-tinged finish. Truly, this is a legendary vintage for d'Yquem. I've been conservative with my drinking window here, and I would not be at all surprised if our descendants are drinking this vintage well into the next century.”
100 pts, Lisa Perrotti Brown, Wine Advocate
This is a very powerful yet at the same time bright and dry d’Yquem. Full-bodied, sweet yet phenolic and layered. Love the combination between tannin and sweetness. The purity and beauty are incredible; it’s the freshness and lightness that make this wine, yet the depth and richness are undeniable.
