Lot 110 Details
CHÂTEAU D'YQUEM 1995

Sauternes. Premier Cru Supérieur
u. bn. marked label.

Served from an ex-chateau bottle. The 1995 Chateau d’Yquem is moving into its secondary aroma phase. A deep golden color, it has a dense and almost Barsac-like bouquet with tangerine, apricot, acacia and melted candle wax. It displays good intensity, unfolding beautifully in the glass. The palate has a strident opening, with a slight bitter edge that lends this Yquem great tension. One can discern layers of marmalade infused with honey fruit, with a powerful, spicy finish that lingers long in the mouth. This is drinking perfectly now, but will surely age with style over many years. Tasted March 2014. WA 95

1 mag.    per lot $600 - $800

Realised: $2,280
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
