2021 Château d'Yquem, 1er Grand Cru Classé Sauternes

2021 Château d'Yquem, 1er Grand Cru Classé Sauternes

2021 produced some delicious sweet wines in Sauternes, combining concentration and incredible freshness. This is a Yquem that will last for decades beautifully, with a seam of electric acidity providing a frame for a long life in bottle. Dried orchard fruit, fresh mandarin, honeysuckle and a waxy note on the nose, and then more restrained than usual on the palate, with more fresh citrus and honey.
