Due to poor weather during much of the growing season, this vintage should, by all rights, be best forgotten. And it is true that summer temperatures were cool, there were 100 mm of precipitation in August, ripening was very uneven, there were burst berries, etc. However, a miraculous and radical change in the weather propitious to botrytis turned what started out as a handicap to a decisive advantage. In fact, the variety and complexity of grapes brought in at different stages produced a fantastic wine.

An exciting vintage, where Yquem's diverse terroirs played a major role in juggling sugar levels that varied between rich, botrytised grapes and those less affected by noble rot, but full of amazing flavours that contributed enormously to the wine's aromatic complexity. The cellar team still remembers the heady fragrance that emerged from the winepress.
On the nose, the wine is said to offer aromas of honey, apricot, and vanilla, along with floral and citrus notes. On the palate, it is described as rich and full-bodied, with flavors of honey, marmalade, and tropical fruit, balanced by a bright acidity and a long, lingering finish.
The harvest began very early, on the 5th September, and lasted 9 weeks. This made is possible to reflect all the diversity of a year in which both flowering and veraison were very spread out. Picking began especially early at Yquem in 2014. Some 25% of the crop was brought in before the 15th of September, providing a rare and precious background of acidity.
The wine is known for its complexity and balance of sweetness and acidity. On the nose, it offers aromas of apricot, honey, and vanilla, with floral and citrus notes. On the palate, it is rich and velvety, with flavors of ripe tropical fruit, honey, and a hint of spice. The finish is long and lingering, with a pleasant acidity that balances the sweetness.
