Château d’Yquem 2015 layers succulent stone and tropical fruits with citrus zest, toasted nuts and subtle pastry tones, all wrapped in a glycerol, honeyed richness that’s kept effortlessly aloft by rapier-like acidity. The balance of depth, sweetness and drive is extraordinary, and the finish seems to glow long after each sip.
