2010 Château d'Yquem

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Friday, July 7, 2023 - From 750 mL opened 3 hours prior to tasting (not decanted)

light gold color, intense honeysuckle on the nose, cream, sweet oranges, on the palate white chocolate mousse and treacle notes dominate a rather large scale of fruit that is currently in hibernation, very fine length, sleek, substantial, while d'Yquem does improve with age I find it rare to see it shutting down to this extent during its younger years, but despite its reluctance- the grand scale of this particular vintage is evident and in the fullness of time this promises to be an important vintage.

(*****), 2030++
