Jeb Dunnuck Review
Rated 99
The 2016 Chateau D'Yquem is pure magic and dessert wines don't get much better. Offering a pale gold color as well as a blockbuster bouquet of honeyed tangerines, tart apricots, liquid rocks, white flowers, and honeysuckle, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, an opulent texture, vibrant acidity, and again, an incredible sense of minerality, despite having no shortage of sweetness or richness. The 2016 is a classic blend of 75% Sémillon and 25% Sauvignon that hit 14.2% alcohol with 135 grams of residual sugar. It's already complex and approachable yet will keep for 3-4 decades. Drink 2019-2054. (6/14/2019)
