2020 Château d'Yquem, 1er Grand Cru Classé Sauternes

2020 Château d'Yquem, 1er Grand Cru Classé Sauternes

2020 is the smallest release on record for Chateau d'Yquem, the result of a quick harvest with plenty of botrytis. It's very fruit forward at the moment with mandarin dominating on the nose and palate, along with honeyed notes and delicate savoury hints. Open and approachable, with a purity and floral lift towards the finish, it will benefit from some time in bottle to soften and build in complexity and richness.
