Chteau d'Yquem--Vintage 1949
Sauternes, 1er grand cru class. Chteau-bottled
Bin-soiled bottle and label, slightly torn label. Level base of neck
With '45 and '47 1949 was the third of the supremely great immediate post-war vintages, and interestingly, a different style. Many notes. Perfection when last tasted at Franz de Cock's Wine Weekend in Paris in December 1995. M.B.
