Description

Château d'Yquem 1967 Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classéu. 1ts, soiled and damp affected labels, slightly nicked on top edge, scuffed and worn capsules of which 1 slightly nicked, 1 slightly sunken corkI am lucky enough to drink this quite often and it is a vinous monument. There is always a real bouquet of developed botrytis and a sense of 'torched' crème brûlée, dried apricots and 'raisins de Corinthe' together with orange zests and beautiful acidity. I have also noted smokiness and hazelnuts. My most recent tasting showed tea, oranges, clementines and allspice and was absolutely fascinating.
