Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1986
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé
Tasted: 03/2002 The 1986 d'Yquem really blew me away, it's a fabulous wine and may turn out ot be one of the best. Colorwise it shows no signs of age, still a classic golden/lemon yellow. The nose has a huge array of ripe, singed citrus aroma's; condensed marmalade, fresh apricots & and a hint of overipe lemon. This wine tastes fantastic, it is incredibly rich & dense in flavour; layers of concentrated honeyed lemon & marmelade with searing acidity that should give this wine a long life. A long lingering finish that encouraged me to fill my glass again. DW
