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.

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.

Honeyed apricots and candied citrus dance on the tongue, with a bright acidity lifting the luscious sweetness.
