Community Tasting Note

Monday, December 16, 2013 - An exquisite, beautifully-balanced and well-proportioned offering from Yquem. The nose has typical Sauternes notes, overlaid with a powerful and unusual note resembling a kind of rare ether, which awakens flavor receptors deep in the olfactory nerves with palpable color, and a gorgeous cleansing. piercing intensity. On the palate, this wine is virtually flawless,with no harsh notes at all, and a hint of crème brulée unusual for such a young Sauternes. This Yquem is in my view rivalled in recent years only by the 2007, and surpassed only by the magnificent and legendary 2001. Absolutely stunning.
