Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1896
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé
Both lots reconditioned in 1986. Slightly creased short capsules. Slightly bin-soiled and very slightly damaged labels. Lot 215 level base of neck. Lot 216 level top-shoulder. In cartons
Tasting Note: Most recently, probably the best ever. Old Yquem always looks its richest in a decanter, this time a 'ruddy' old gold, deep with brush of brown, almost red highlights and open apple-green rim; its bouquet both easy and, in truth, difficult to justice to: the anticipated crème brülée, old apricots, honeyed, whiff of caramel and unplumbable depth; medium-sweet, drying out a little after 85 years, gloriously rich, intense and persistent flavour, perfect sustaining acidity and lingering aftertaste. Sheer perfection. Last tasted April 2006 ****** (6 stars) M.B.
