CHATEAU D'YQUEM 1971 |

Château d'Yquem 1971 Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classéu. 1bn, 4vts, 4ts, scuffed and stained labels, different printing of vintage on labels, sunken corksWonderful fresh, orange blossom, aromatic nose of enormous style. Great sweet clementines on the palate. Perfect acidity balance, which is not present in the 1970 - this has more attack and freshness. Very tempting.
