Rich and pliant, this is a gorgeous wine. Pineapple and apricot. A burst of acidity. Perfect balance. Yet delicious.

Served with fois gras at Lafayette, NYC.

Solid but not elite Yquem. Possessed all the depth and complexity you would expect but was more narrow without the focus you get in a better vintage.

Smells like peak market pricing, high viscosity

Concentrated and rich apricot, peach, honey, and elderflower. Sweet, but I could drink a bottle of this, perfectly balanced. 😍

So crisp, delightfully sweet without the heaviness of lesser Sauternes.
