Château d'Yquem 2003 (12 BT)

Château d'Yquem 2003

Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé

In original bands

This is an atypical year, with its excessive heat and high temperatures, but it is a triumph for Pierre Lurton who came to Yquem after the harvest which was, very unusually, effected in one single 'trie', or picking. Brilliant selection in the vineyard and blending have produced an amazing orange honey nose, mixed with acacia. Stunning balance and elegance, which is a feat in a year of climatic extremes. Enormous length on the palate. In 2018, fabulous flavours of kumquat and dried apricots. Serena Sutcliffe, MW 

WA 94

這是不尋常的一年，天氣炎熱，溫度十分高，但對於收成後 才加入伊甘堡的Pierre Lurton來說，是一個成功的年份。此 年份收成期間只收採葡萄一次，實在十分罕見。於葡萄園內精挑細選葡萄加上出色的混釀技巧，此酒溢發精彩的蜜糖橙香，還有花香，平衡度佳並優雅動人，在此極端氣候之下釀 造出此美酒實在難得，收結十分悠長。施慧娜 (葡萄酒大師 M.W.)
