Tasting Notes
4.2
The wine features an intriguing blend of rose-flavoured Turkish delight, camphor, caramel, apricot jam, dried herbs, pine nuts, and coffee. This array of aromas creates a captivating bouquet, which is mirrored perfectly on the palate, resulting in a rich, complex, and persistent taste experience. While the acidity may be somewhat lacking, especially when compared to other bottles by Yquem, this does not significantly detract from its overall appeal. The wine remains a delicious and fitting conclusion to a great evening, offering a memorable and enjoyable finish.
