Description
Château d'Yquem 1975
Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé
Lot 1517: u. 2 bn, 4 vts, slightly soiled labels, 1 slightly wine stained label, slightly corroded capsules, Japanese importer's slips, Lot 1518: u. 1 vts, very slightly corroded capsules, 1 very slight signs of old seepage, lightly soiled labels, Japanese importer's slips
In 2015, great 'mystery' and class on the nose. Apricots too, which continue on the palate, with nuts, grapefruit, figs and sultanas. Stunning finish of coffee and figs which just keeps on getting better. The over-concentrated grapes of the year are still delivering extraordinary purity, sweetness and balance. This has much more fruit now than the 1967. Absolutely amazing - un-put-downable. This surges to the top in any vertical of Yquem. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
