2019 Chateau d’Yquem Premier Cru Superieur, Sauternes 1x375ml

Vinous 89

The 2019 Y de Yquem has an attractive nose with citrus peel and white tea. Touches of crushed stone develop with time. The palate is well-balanced with fine delineation, just a little oaky at the moment but there is sufficient fruit to soak that up, so afford this a couple of years in bottle. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. [Neal Martin, 28/02/2023]
