Yquem 2016

Seamless and refined, the 2016 Yquem achieves remarkable balance despite its inherent richness. Pineapple, orange marmalade and exotic spices flow with silky precision across the palate. The wine's viscous texture and phenolic depth add layers of complexity without overwhelming the delicate fruit. At 135 grams residual sugar, the sweetness feels perfectly integrated rather than cloying. A magical expression that drinks beautifully now yet promises decades ahead.
