Product Info

98+ bod. - The Wine Advocate

Već vjekovima među ljubiteljima vina postoji gotovo jednoglasno mišljenje da je Château d’Yquem najveće slatko vino na svijetu. Kao jedino imanje sa oznakom Premier Cru Supérieur u čuvenoj bordoškoj apelaciji Sauternes, Château d’Yquem predstavlja sam vrh svoje kategorije. Svaka berba odražava neuporedivu posvećenost kvalitetu, pokazujući savršen balans raskoši, kompleksnosti i dugovječnosti.

Yquem 2016 je vino izuzetne čistoće i preciznosti. Na nosu se otvaraju intenzivne arome zrele kajsije, manga, ananasa, marmelade od pomorandže i bagremovog meda, uz slojeve jasmina, šafrana, vanile i slatkih začina. Na nepcu je vino istovremeno raskošno i izuzetno živahno, sa kristalno čistom kisjelinom koja mu daje izvanrednu svježinu i napetost. Talasi tropskog voća, kandiranih citrusa i mineralnih nota postepeno se razvijaju prema završetku izuzetne dužine i elegancije.
