Score 17.5/20 · Drink 1985-2025, Jancis Robinson MW, Nov 2022
Dark brown. Recalls those sweet wines in the Soviet archive – a bit of rancio, a bit of compost. Macerated raisins and a strongly rancio/bitter finish. Sightly hard work. This would need very careful food matching. Not that sweet. Bit more like a madeira. (JR)

About the producer

d'Yquem
The undisputed finest sweet wine in the world, Château d'Yquem is the only Premier Cru Supérieur estate in Sauternes, classified in 1855. With a long history stretching back to the Middle Ages, the château is entwined with that of the Lur-Saluces family – who remain involved today.
