Château d’Yquem Sauternes 1855 1er Cru Supérieur 2013
Hints of saffon and fresh truffle, dominated by juicy peach, apricot pit, satsuma and lemon peel notes, so drinkable and graceful, drawn out, languid, pleasurable. Less concentrated than the 2022 and 1989 that we also tasted over this incredible lunch, but full of grace, in its drinking window and yet sure to age for decades. Sandrine Garbay winemaker, 100% new French oak barrels for ageing, Pierre Lurton director.
