Château d’Yquem is renowned as the premier Sauternes producer globally, yet they also produce an exquisite dry white labelled Ygrec de Yquem. The 1985 vintage of this intriguing wine, crafted from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, presents a palate that is refreshingly dry with a subtle off-dry nuance. It is a layered and complex tasting experience, showcasing a rich fruit bowl on the nose where notes of stone fruits, lemon curd, and melon contribute to its profile.

Vinous
The 1985 Y de Yquem has a very arresting nose. Green olives, brin and a slight Padron pepper aroma, slightly oxidative yet utterly compelling. You will either love it or hate it. The palate is well-defined with a strong flor-like aroma, unapologetically nutty, almost smoky on the finish. Very distinctive. Tasted at the château.
