CHATEAU D'YQUEM, 2019

SAUTERNES

“Pale to medium gold colored, the 2007 d'Yquem delivers powerful scents of tropical fruits-dried mangoes and pineapple paste-accented by acacia honey, toasted almonds and woodsmoke with hints of chalk dust, kettle corn and lime blossom. The palate reveals one of those vintages that shape-shifts into an apparently drier style than it is, largely thanks to its uber-racy backbone of freshness and layered mineral-inspired flavors, finishing with a regal, satin-textured savoriness.” Wine Advocate 98+/100
