Lot Details
Description
Château d'Yquem 1996
Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé
Levels into the neck, original tissues, cases banded prior to inspection
In 2019, this is an absolute knock-out for its glorious, creamy elegance, with both floral and citrus notes and fabulous freshness and silkiness. The balance is perfect, not the most enormous Yquem, but breathtakingly beautiful - my kind of Yquem. We had it with Gabriel Coulet's incomparable Roquefort, which has the same creaminess and was an incredible combination. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
