Description

Château d'Yquem 1953 Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classéu. 2ts, slightly scuffed labels and capsules, 1 sign of seepage, 1 slightly sunken corkThis has amazingly low sugar for Yquem (71g) but high alcohol (14.4%). Unbelievably fragrant bouquet of orange blossom and heather in flower. Tarry/sweet taste. A touch of salt in there too, as one sometimes sees in mature vintages. Raisins finish, rich and lingering.
