Château d’Yquem Magnum 2014 showcases the intricacies of Sauternes production from a renowned estate, known for its unique terroir and meticulous harvesting practices. The 2014 vintage benefited from a favourable growing season, marked by a series of selective hand-pickings across several weeks, culminating in a rich concentration of 100% botrytis-affected grapes. Expect layers of complexity, featuring notes of apricot, citrus zest, and subtle spice. Château d’Yquem, established in the late 16th century, is the only Sauternes estate classified as a Premier Cru Supérieur, underscoring its historical significance in the wine industry.
96 The Wine Independent
Pale straw-gold in color, the 2014 d'Yquem is a little subdued to start off, unfurling to reveal notes of candied orange peel, baked peaches, and beeswax plus touches of dried persimmon and mango. The palate delivers delightfully bright layers and a crisp backbone, finishing with great length and depth.Lisa Perrotti-Brown5th March 2024
95 Vinous
The 2014 Yquem has a potent nose with yellow plum, tangerine, peach and honey, exuberant and with plenty of botrytis. There is a real presence in this wine. The palate is well balanced with an unctuous entry and a keen thread of acidity, effervescent with blood orange, white peaches and pineapple toward the finish. Very persistent in the mouth, this is clearly an excellent Sauternes that constantly improves in the glass. Tasted blind at the Southwold 10-Year-On tasting. Neal Martin19th March 2024
