Château d'Yquem Sauternes is the world's most celebrated sweet wine, renowned for extraordinary richness, purity, and longevity. Aromas of apricot, honey, pineapple, orange marmalade, saffron, vanilla, and toasted almonds unfold into a luscious palate balanced by vibrant acidity and an incredibly persistent finish.
Food Pairing: Pair with foie gras, blue cheese, fruit tarts, crème brûlée, roasted peaches, or enjoy on its own as a luxurious dessert wine.
98 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Pale to medium gold colored, the 2007 Château d'Yquem delivers powerful scents of tropical fruits—dried mangoes and pineapple paste—accented by acacia honey, toasted almonds and woodsmoke with hints of chalk dust, kettle corn and lime blossom. The palate reveals one of those vintages that shape-shifts into an apparently drier style than it is, largely thanks to its uber-racy backbone of freshness and layered mineral-inspired flavors, finishing with a regal, satin-textured savoriness. Difficult to resist now, this will be one of those Rip Van Winkle vintages that can be predicted to cellar not just for decades but for generations. For number crunchers: 14.2% alcohol, 137 grams per liter residual sugar, and total acidity is 3.7 grams per liter H₂SO₄.
96 Points - Wine Spectator
This has really started to put on weight, with heather and ginger notes emerging from the core of dried pineapple, bergamot, candied grapefruit rind and mango. Long and creamy through the very rich, spicy finish, with lingering golden raisin and frangipane notes. Loads of power in reserve, as this sports the bold, hedonistic profile of the vintage in spades. Best from 2020 through 2050.
