Chateau d’Yquem was the joint-highest scoring wine of the 2013 vintage in ratings published by Decanter last month. It got 18.5 points, only equalled by Haut-Brion Blanc, a dry white, in what has generally been regarded as a better year for Bordeaux whites versus reds.
Thanks for the note! I haven’t had an opportunity to try this vintage yet, but the notes seem promising.
Anyone have any input on the 2014 that was recently released? That’s another one I’m curious about. The 2013 and the 2014 are approximately the same price. The impression that I get gives the 2013 the edge, but I would love to hear if anyone has tried both!
