Chateau d’Yquem 'Y' Ygrec (Dry) 2005 Size::1 Bottle more flinty minerality and hintsThe color is pale, golden yellow with lovely, brilliant highlights. On agitation, the intense bouquet, featuring white peaches, lindin blossom, and boxwood, reveals toasty and mineral overtones. The aromas develop on aeration in the glass, while retaining all their initial intensity, making this an unusually complex wine.
