Château d'Yquem 2014, Premier Cru Supérieur, Sauternes
Situato nel territorio della denominazione Sauternes, il celebre Château Yquempossiede un vigneto di 113 ettari che trae beneficio da un suolo estremente vario, anch'esso responsabile della complessità del vino.
Lo Château Yquem 2014 libera un bouquet aromatico molto accattivante che ci affascina grazie a note di miele puro e selvatico combinate a sentori di mandorle e di cioccolato bianco che gli conferiscono un carattere sensuale e preciso. Al palato, è molto equilibrato e con un'acidità quasi perfetta. È un vino armonioso, molto profondo, ma meno scintillante rispetto ad altre annate e con un acidità valorizzata da note di sorbetto al limone, di scorza d'arancia e di zenzero grattugiato con qualche tocco di cioccolato bianco. Estremamente persistente in bocca, offre un finale segnato più dalla morbidezza che dalla potenza.

Wine Advocate-Parker :
The Château Yquem 2014 was picked over 9 weeks this year, with one-quarter of the grapes picked prior to 15 September. It delivers 134 grams per liter residual sugar and 7.3 grams per liter tartaric acid, with a pH 3.60. It has a captivating bouquet (I know...I know...what else were you expecting) But it entrances with its pure, wild honey notes mixed with almond and white chocolate scents, bestowed with beguiling delineation and focus. The palate is very poised with the acidity nigh on perfect. Occasionally an Yquem only reveals its components parts at this early juncture, necessitates conjecture. However the 2014 has a sense of harmony and completeness already, as if the élevage is merely there to usher it on to its finished state. There is undeniably great depth here, perhaps less conspicuous than other vintages because of that silver thread of acidity: notes of lemon sherbet, orange zest, shaved ginger and again, a few flakes' of white chocolate. It is extremely long with tenderness rather than power on the finish. It's not quite up there in the rarefied heights of say, the 2001 or 2009, but it is what we call in the trade, the business.
