Château d'Yquem 1959
Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé
u. 1vts, 1 level into the neck, bin-soiled and slightly torn labels
This was a quick, early vintage at Yquem. I have tasted it many times and it is always an enormous treat, sumptuous, mouth-coating and full of apricots, currants and raisins. It has lavender on the bouquet as well as that hugely rich, candied peel taste. Amazing depth and broadness. Excellent tarry acidity. Lavender flowers at the end. A star among Yquems.
