This year was strongly marked by hot weather starting in mid-may building up to record temperatures in august. The summer of 2003 was totally outside the norm. 35 mm of rain in early september brought on an overwhelming and all-encompassing attack of botrytis that resulted in a unique phenomenon: the entire crop was picked in one single pass! The wine is as elegant as it is atypical. It is said that this vintage is reminiscent of the conditions that led to the making of the first ever botrytised wines in sauternes. – chateau d’yquem
