Yquem 1991

Golden amber in the glass, the 1991 Yquem reveals surprising depth for this lesser vintage. Fig jam and honeyed fruit emerge with subtle adhesive notes that add intrigue. The palate shows keen acidity that lifts the sweetness, creating better balance than expected. While not among the great Yquems, it delivers classic Sauternes character with appealing immediacy. Drink now through 2035.
