The nose offers intense aromas of fresh and dried apricot and peach pastry, as well as freshly baked creme brulee, candied and fresh orange and kumquat. Some marmalade, too. Smooth, glossy texture with flavors of grilled orange, dried apricot and an exceptionally long finish with a powerful, driving push to the end. A flicker of toasty-oak influence arrives late, but this wine has completely consumed the oak. The 2017 Yquem is a very powerful wine from a very rich and exceptional vintage. The acidity has a big hand in balancing the richness. Pithy finish. The phenolics deliver some great depth. Rain at the beginning of September prompted an extensive infection of noble rot. The harvest lasted from September 26 to October 13. Great quality and one of the best since the legendary 2001.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-uw-rm-sr=\"\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003ca data-uw-rm-empty-ctrl=\"\" aria-label=\"plummarket.com\" href=\"https:\/\/www.plummarket.com\/store\/pub\/media\/wysiwyg\/wine\/ratings.png\" title=\"Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate - 99pts\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr data-uw-rm-sr=\"\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e99 points Robert Parker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThere was no frost at d’Yquem in 2017, and botrytis was very regular and even this vintage. The nose opens with very pure notes of freshly sliced oranges, yuzu and lemon barley water with hints of white pepper, fresh ginger and lime cordial. The incredibly rich, unctuous sweetness (148 grams per liter of residual sugar) is beautifully marbled with bright, vivacious citrus fruit and spice flavors, while lifted by well-knit freshness, and it finishes with epic length and great depth. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Misa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42921182822537,"sku":null,"price":325.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/2820\/8009\/files\/PhotoRoom-20230909-223541_5_e7e02178-3138-49cf-9b62-fdc0726dc2c2.jpg?v=1696114972","url":"https:\/\/atlaswineshop.com\/products\/chateau-dyquem-sauternes-2017-375ml-copy","provider":"Atlas Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
