With only 10,000 bottle produced annually, Y d’Yquem is undoubtedly a rare wine. If we add the fact that it is dry Whitewine produced by the most famous sweet wine producer in the world, it becomes a rare oddity. First produced in 1959, “Y” represents only 10% of the annual production of the famous Château. The Sauvignon Blanc grapes destined for this blend are among the first to be harvested, so as not to lose their acidity. Sémillon, on the other hand, is the last harvest to provide the wine with a rare component of Botrytis. Made with the same meticulousness as sweet wine, “Y” is the unique expression of a terroir that deserves all the attention. No wonder it has no equal among Whitewines from Bordeaux! Color: straw yellow with golden reflections Smell: elegant, vibrant and floral, with hints of juicy peaches and passion fruit Taste: complex and rich, with acidity fresh, beautiful texture and dominant aromas of honeycomb, lemon blossom and grapefruit; slightly spicy and smoky, with subtle and well-integrated breezes of oak that complement the aromatic palette with shades of sweet vanilla and nutmeg; long and fine finish Gastronomic recommendations: excellent as an appetizer, goes very well with seafood, Whitefish, vegetarian dishes, chicken, not very spicy oriental dishes and fresh cheeses Alcohol: 14.5% temperature8-10 ° C Optimal consumption period: 2020 – 2036 The wine is vinified in stainless steel vats. Without malolactic fermentation and aged for 10 months in 50% new French oak barrels. The rest of the barrels come from sweet wine. 98 James Suckling Points
