The 1982 Yquem is a revelation from this challenging vintage, defying all expectations with stunning clarity and focus. Limpid gold in color, the bouquet shimmers with quince, saffron and honeysuckle, displaying remarkable citrus-driven precision. The palate is built around live-wire acidity that brings taut energy to flavors of orange zest, white peach and quince. This bottle represents the pinnacle of what 1982 could achieve—a focused, irresistible expression that may never be matched again.
