2009 Château d'Yquem, Sauternes, Bordeaux

Description

With a refined fragrance of honeysuckle, citrus peel, and barley sugar, this has very elegant sweetness on the palate but it is not at all blowsy, with good acidity to provide excellent balancing freshness. Not a blockbuster, it is however beautifully harmonious and truly fine, almost Barsac-like rather than Sauternes, with a very long finish. The wine is still undeveloped at this stage but one senses great ageing potential.

About this wine

Château d’Yquem

Château d’Yquem is the leading estate in the Sauternes appellation on the Left Bank of Bordeaux. It has long been reputed for making one of the world’s great sweet wines. In the 1855 classification of Bordeaux wines, Yquem was given the lofty title of Premier Cru Supérieur – the sole property at that level. It sits comfortably among the First Growths of the Médoc and their equivalents on the Right Bank regarding its quality and prestige among wine collectors.
