About This Wine
To understand the greatness of Château d'Yquem, one only needs to look at the 1855 Bordeaux Classification. It is a ranking of all the best wineries in Bordeaux. On it, the founders created a section for white wines of the Gironde. Only one achieved the highest classification of superior first growth. And, yes, that distinction belongs to Château d'Yquem.
Uncork 2016 Château d'Yquem, and the appeal is obvious. Breathtaking notes of honey, marmalade, mango, pineapple, flower blossoms, and baking spice fill the air. The enveloping fragrance dovetails into a silky and sumptuous body that coats the palate evenly. This blend of sémillion (75) and sauvignon blanc (25) makes its presence felt without being overbearing, walking the line between sweetness, acidity, and a hint of bitterness. Add in a legendary finish, and it's easy to see why 2016 Château d'Yquem is in a class of its own.
The Final Sip: When it comes to white wine in Bordeaux, there is Château d'Yquem. Then, there is everyone else.
