Community Tasting Note

94 Points

Friday, April 7, 2023 - A few days in Napa with fellow CT'r Cristal2000: A super-duper young pup that is all about acid and freshness. Higher register yellow citrus and stone fruits, but with the signature Yquem herbal and flowery notes that immediately add interest. The mid-palate hits just the right honey note, but then drives on to the acid-driven finish. Speedy Gonzales on the back end. You can certainly drink this now, but be prepared for a more “Bing, Bang, Boom” experience than some smoking jacket and cigar type of deal. Ideally, hold for another 20-50 years or something crazy like that.
