This offers creamed yellow apple, green melon and verbena notes surrounded by a brioche and salted butter frame. The long and flattering finish lets a second wave of coconut, candied lemon peel and heather glide through. Clearly on the opulent side of the ledger, but there's a remarkably deft edge here as well. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now through 2025.

No, not a 2016, but since it is the vintage currently for sale, then I will publish my review of the 2015 Ygrec here. The Sauvignon Blanc (75% of the blend) was picked quickly from 25-27 August this year, the Sémillon on 3 and 4 September. It has six grams per liter of residual sugar and the pH, a sizzling 3.20. It has an intriguing bouquet of melted wax, white flowers and hints of sea spray, that marine influence becoming quite strong with aeration. The palate is fresh on the entry with fresh ginger and lemongrass, lively in the mouth with shades of orange rind and sour lemon towards the persistent finish. I would afford this several years in bottle and I suspect you will end up with a very distinctive dry Bordeaux from the most famous Sauternes estate.

Château d'Yquem
Situé à 55 kilomètres au sud de la ville de Bordeaux, le Château d’Yquem, vieux de quatre cents ans, est une charmante propriété surplombant la vallée de Sauternes avec un panorama à couper le souffle. Ce domaine notoire s’est forgé une réputation mondiale de plus grand vin liquoreux de France. A sa tête pendant plus de deux siècles, la famille de Lur Saluces l’a cédé à LVMH en 1999. Les vignobles s’étendent sur plus de 100 hectares, baignés de soleil mais aussi de brumes matinales fraîches. Ils sont vendangés baie par baie avec minutie. Après un passage en barriques neuves durant plus de trois ans, les vins sont mis en bouteille sans filtration. L’œnologue Pierre Lurton, ancien directeur du Château Cheval Blanc, veille sur les vinifications de la maison depuis 2004. Aucun autre château ne réussit à marier la dentelle à la puissance avec la même prouesse féminine. C’est ainsi que le Château d’Yquem défend aisément son titre de Premier Cru Supérieur. En dépit d’une production quantitative, les vins d’Yquem restent au sommet, leur qualité suprême étant illustrée par le grand vin, Yquem.
