Château D'Yquem
1904
Beautiful dry, warm weather throughout the growing season. A few light showers in early September brought on noble rot. The first pass starting on 17/9 was very generous, and the grapes had good sugar. 22 mm of rain fell on the 26th of September and 18 mm in early October, prior to a window of opportunity (dry weather), that was propitious to several passes with opulently rich grapes. A vintage combining quality and quantity.
