Description

Château d'Yquem 1959

Sauternes, 1er Grand Cru Classé

u. vts, label soiled, scuffed and slightly nicked, scuffed capsule


This was a quick, early vintage at Yquem. I have tasted it many times and it is always an enormous treat, sumptuous, mouth-coating and full of apricots, currants and raisins. It has lavender on the bouquet as well as that hugely rich, candied peel taste. Amazing depth and broadness. Excellent tarry acidity. Lavender flowers at the end. A star among Yquems. Serena Sutcliffe, MW


採收期早而且短。品嚐過無數次,每次都令人稱心滿足,口感厚潤,充滿杏子、黑加侖子和葡萄乾味。帶薰衣草香,洋溢蜜餞果皮味。酒體深邃複雜。有焦油酸香。收結有薰衣草花味。伊甘堡傑作。施慧娜 (葡萄酒大師M.W.)
