Parker 97 points: The favorite sweet wine of millionaires, Chateau d'Yquem has, not unexpectedly, turned in a brilliant effort with their newly released 1989. It is a large-scaled, massively rich, unctuously-textured wine that should evolve effortlessly for a half century or more. It does not reveal the compelling finesse and complexity of the 1988 or 1986, but it is a far heavier, richer wine than either of those vintages. It is reminiscent o...

The Story

The pleasure derived from tasting Yquem is difficult to describe.

It offers a myriad of well-balanced, complex flavours that generate even more harmonies over time. The impression that remains is reminiscent of a quote from Frédéric Dard "the silence that follows a piece by Mozart, in which the listener remains suffused with the music". This reflects the fact that Château d'Yquem stays on the palate for a remarkable long time, providing a u...

Wine Information

The weather conditions this year were extreme and unsettled, culminating in a terrible hail storm in early July that destroyed a quarter of the crop. The weather was nevertheless very sunny and hot when it came time to pick. 1989 is a very powerful wine that has a rare profile in keeping with such memorable vintages as 1929, 1947, and 1949.

Vuosikerta 1989

Bordeaux: The 2nd in a trio of great vintages and which produced a large harvest of ripe, rich and fleshy wines which generally possess soft, silky tannins, accompanied by a high alcohol level. It was the hottest summer since 1949 and the harvest began on August 28, the earliest since 1893. The grapes were harvested in dry conditions, the only concern being that some acidity levels were low, which which has led to suggestions that some wines w...

The 1989 Chateau d’Yquem had the darkest color of the first four, suggesting a faster maturity curve, meaning drink up by 2050 lol. Strangely enough, there were more slate and rock aromas (suggesting youth), but that nutty, marzipan goodness was still there. This was a very musky wine, ‘more open and evolved’ per the Copperhead. Its palate was creamier, sweeter and more congenial than the 1990. It was honeyed with layers of caramel flavors, and so good now. This is THE vintage of great, young Yquem to drink, possibly over the next two decades (96).

Golden. Rich, fruity, apricots, some spices, some vanilla, touch of caramel nose. Fresh acidity, fruity, apricots, some spices, elegant, touch bitter, some raisins, long. 96

Consistent notes. Straw yellow. It had very alcoholic nose with well-developed noble rot, fat texture, rasp honey, tropical fruits (mango, pineapple and guava), but seemed a bit clumsy on the palate with marked presence of alcohol. This wine looked like a giant on slippery feet, so it hopefully can develop stronger fundament in the near future. Hasn't changed much since April 2005.
