Y d'Yquem 1978
Y d'Yquem, the dry masterpiece of the legendary Château d'Yquem in Sauternes, embodies unrivalled refinement. This 1978 vintage, made from Sémillon (60%) and Sauvignon Blanc (40%), draws its character from an exceptional terroir: clay-gravel soils, sublimated by the unique climate of the Ciron. The finely crafted vinification process combines fermentation in vats with barrel ageing for optimum complexity. This vintage, shaped by a mild year, shines in its harmony. On tasting, this white wine reveals bewitching aromas of grapefruit, light honey and toasted almond, with a chalky note. Its velvety texture, balanced by radiant freshness, offers a long, sophisticated finish. Perfect with asparagus risotto or poultry à la crème, Y d'Yquem 1978 is a nugget for white wine lovers. Add this rarity to your cellar for an unforgettable sensory experience.
