Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1937
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé.
Excellent top-shoulder level, gold color, capsule deteriorating,
but complete; label in excellent condition
"...perfect bouquet (how can one put perfection into words?);
honeyed, fragrant, orange blossom, gushing forth an endless
succession of scents from seemingly immeasurable depths. On the
palate sweet, full-bodied, rich, concentrated, ambrosial
barley-sugar, wonderful length, acidity, aftertaste. Most recently,
a magnum: an explosive bouquet and almost exaggerated flavour.
Five stars." JMB
