Description

Château d'Yquem 1991 

Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé

u. 1bn, excellent labels, 1 capsule slightly damaged; Excellentes étiquettes, 1 capsule légèrement abimée

This is a superb wine, made in minute quantity. It has such great freshness and the sweetness is enhanced by the most peachy taste I have seen in Yquem. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

The property of a great bon viveur, who had an eye for the best, this collection starts with an impressive tranche of La Tâche, followed by other DRC cases, Château Latour and other top claret, Yquem, Masseto, Sassicaia, etc. The damp in the cellar has affected the labels, but it also means that the levels, almost without exception, are well into the neck, and the wine itself is bursting with health
