First produced in 1959, “Y” is the dry white wine of Château d’Yquem, the Sauternes estate celebrated for its sweet wines. The 2024 Bordeaux Blanc comes in a 1.5-liter magnum—equivalent to two standard bottles—presented in a single-bottle original wooden case.

Just hover your nose over the glass to get excited about this wine. Inky purple in colour, cigar box, tobacco bud, pencil lead, tight cassis and bilberry fruit. Where the 2015 is generous, the 2016 is tighter, less expressive at the five year mark, but with layers and potential to fire up an entire room. Has the structure and the chiselled fruit that signposts great Bordeaux in an exceptional vintage, with the nuanced whisper of violet and peony that takes you to the Margaux appellation. Powerful and muscular, still austere but the morieish juice on the finish tells you how much this has to give over the next few decades.
