CHÂTEAU D'YQUEM

Château d'Yquem 2004 Filette

This vintage reflects the quintessence of the entire range of Yquem's various terroirs. The wine displays astonishing complexity and great freshness – in fact, an unrivalled vivaciousness. It is very pure, with aromas of fresh fruit and white flowers. The palate also shows a subtle balance between sugar and acidity.

CHÂTEAU D'YQUEM

Château d'Yquem 2001

A picture perfect growing season, with a dry month of September (sunny and moderately warm) that was ideal for retaining acidity and freshness. A few showers came at just the right time and an anticyclone completed a fortuitous set of circumstances that induced widespread botrytisation. The grapes showed rare concentration and great purity. This is clearly a benchmark vintage.

CHÂTEAU D'YQUEM

Château d'Yquem 2000

A year that had several major advantages in terms of weather: temperatures 2°C above average between March and September and a slight water stress. Grapes harvested during the first pass confirmed having lived up to their potential. Unfortunately, however, relentless rain in October ruined nearly 80% of the crop, and production was limited to 25,000 bottles. A vintage reminiscent of 1982.
