Description:
The 2005 Château d'Yquem Sauternes is a wine that truly exudes luxury and refinement. From the Sauternes region of Bordeaux, this wine is made with a blend of Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle grapes that are affected by "noble rot" (Botrytis cinerea) which gives this wine its unique sweetness and complex flavor profile. The 2005 vintage had a great summer which helped the grapes reach optimal ripeness.
The wine has a golden color, rich and unctuous texture, and a bouquet that is out of this world, with notes of honey, apricot, cand fruit and a hint of vanilla, caramel and toasted bread. On the palate, it's rich and luscious with a perfect balance of sweetness and acidity, and a long and elegant finish. This wine is one that can be aged for many years and will continue to evolve and develop complex flavors.
The 2005 Château d'Yquem Sauternes is a wine that truly stands out; it's luxurious, refined and has an outstanding aging potential. A wine that will impress any wine lover, and a must-try for anyone who appreciates the finer things in life. |
