Critic tasting note: "More interesting on its nose with all of its butterscotch, honey, butter, caramel, orange, and bright pineapple notes. Medium-bodied, energetic, crisp, and fresh with honeyed, yellow tropical fruit and orange pith on the palate. This is a very bright, semi-sweet style of d'Yquem. Drink from 2022-2030." - 92/100, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

- Vintage Notes
-
A year of excesses: above-average temperatures, heavy rain in July and September that miraculously spared Yquem, and a tropical month of August. The situation called for considerable patience, but this was rewarded in October with dry weather, and the crop was able to be picked in two passes. The grapes were concentrated and very pure. 1999 is a lucky vintage which, thanks to skilful winemaking, is one of the best of the 1990s. The crop was picked in two passes.

1999 Vintage
Tasted: Aug 2022
More interesting on its nose with all of its butterscotch, honey, butter, caramel, orange, and bright pineapple notes. Medium-bodied, energetic, crisp, and fresh with honeyed, yellow tropical fruit and orange pith on the palate. This is a very bright, semi-sweet style of d'Yquem. Drink from 2022-2030.
1999 Vintage
Tasted: Jan 2022
Red-gold colour, aroma of roasted chestnuts, autumn leaves and acorns, followed on the palate by intense and complex tarte tatin, baked custard, dark bitter honey, agave and star anise. Textural and almost grainy quality as it becomes dense with some age. Generous and intense, very long, opening up over time with spicy and complex notes of aniseed, Russian leather and the classic saffron note of Botrytis. RL

Copper tints, orange golden colour. Intense marmalade nose, botrytus, mouthfilling, rich and ripe marmalde and candid peel, complex, yet great acidity cleaning up the palate, slight saline finish, huge length. Still vibrant & youthful! 96 PA 12/18
