Description
Château d'Yquem 1953
Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé
u. 1ts, 1t/hs, slightly bin-soiled labels and scuffed capsules
This 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. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
