Yquem 2020

Mercurial and beguiling, the 2020 Yquem unfolds with remarkable complexity in the glass. White peach, almond and pineapple emerge first, followed by more exotic notes of saffron and pressed flowers. The palate shows surprising salinity and mineral tension that provides compelling contrast to the wine's inherent opulence. Caramelized pear, stem ginger and orange rind build toward a finish that fans out with nascent power. Destined for decades of graceful evolution.
