Lot Details

Description

Château d'Yquem 2008

Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé

Excellent level and appearance, embossed metal capsule, tissue and straw wrapped, banded until inspection


In 2022, it is the utter peachiness of this wine that impresses and charms. Honied and balanced, it expands on the palate to an explosive and lingering finish. Liquid peaches and cream. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
