2005 Château d'Yquem Half Bottle (375ml)

The 2005 Château d'Yquem is an iconic Sauternes from Bordeaux, showing apricot, ripe peach and candied citrus with honey, saffron, vanilla and delicate dried-fruit complexity developed through bottle age.

On the palate, it is intensely rich yet beautifully balanced, with vibrant acidity carrying concentrated sweetness and a silky, layered texture. Notes of honey, citrus marmalade, stone fruit and spice lead into an exceptionally long, persistent finish.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional choice for collectors seeking one of Bordeaux’s most celebrated sweet wines with outstanding longevity. Enjoy now or cellar well beyond 2040. Serve chilled with foie gras, Roquefort, tarte Tatin, poached pear or a lightly sweet almond dessert.
