There is no wine quite like Yquem, and no vintage quite like 2016. Produced from botrytis-affected Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc harvested berry by painstaking berry across Sauternes' most famous estate, this is liquid gold in the most literal sense — concentrated, honeyed, and shot through with an electric acidity that keeps it honest.

The 2016 is one of those vintages where the conditions aligned almost perfectly: a dry, warm autumn allowed noble rot to spread evenly, producing grapes of extraordinary concentration. Half bottles age faster than magnums, which only adds intrigue; the evolution will be more rapid, but no less compelling.
