Elegantly restrained for Yquem, the 2000 Y shows deliberate precision over opulence. Dried honey and white tea notes flow with Burgundian-like finesse, while subtle botrytis adds complexity without overwhelming. A touch of oxidative character brings focus, leading to a clean finish marked by lemongrass and mineral tension. Drinking beautifully now with lovely balance throughout.
