Lot 393 Details
CHÂTEAU D'YQUEM 2006

Sauternes. Premier Cru Supérieur
u. 3 x bn. 1 x marked label.

Medium lemon-gold colored, the 2006 d'Yquem is a little reticent at this stage, slowly revealing notes of pineapple pastry, dried apple slices, orange preserves and spice cake plus nuances of crème brûlée, preserved ginger, nutmeg and baking bread. The palate offers mouth-coating tropical fruit and baking spice layers with a seductive oiliness to the texture and loads of citrus sparks, finishing with bold freshness and amazing length. August 2019 Drink: 2021-2046 WA 95+

3 hf. bts.    per lot $500 - $700

Realised: $2,424
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
