Château d'Yquem 1976 (12 BT)

Château d'Yquem 1976

Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé

u. 12bn, 2 bottles missing appellation slips, 6 slightly bin marked and scuffed labels, slightly worn capsules, 4 very slightly sunken corks, 3 with slight signs of seepage

The harvest this year all came in from the second wave of picking. In 2014, such raisiny splendour, all apricots and sultanas, plus rich, creamy texture and a glorious walnut finish. The perfect comparison with the powerful 1975 - a judgement of Paris! Serena Sutcliffe, MW

此年收成來自第二次採摘。2014年品嚐，葡萄乾香華美馥庾，嚐到杏子和葡萄乾味，質感豐厚滑膩，收結有妙極的核桃香。與強勁的1975年的對比堪稱一絕，卻又令人難以取捨。施慧娜 (葡萄酒大師M.W.)
