CHATEAU D'YQUEM 1981 |

Château d'Yquem 1981 Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé4 bts - Bin soiled labels in which 1 scuffed, signs of old seepage, 6 bts - u. 3bn, scuffed and damp stained labels, capsules corroded with 2 very slightly damaged, 2 slightly sunken corksPeaches on the nose, more seen in a Vouvray than in a Sauternes! Such a wonderful orange brûlée taste. Tremendous peachy treacle too - liquid honey. Tops the 1980 for complexity. At 27 years old, this is the time to drink it.
