Details
Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1955
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé. Château-bottled
Recapsuled, recorked and relabelled in 2001. Levels into neck. Six bottles deep in colour
In original wooden case
Tasting note: Impressive in cask, wonderfully even development throughout the 1970's into the 1980s. An astonishing orange rosehip amber with pale lemon rim; intense and heady fragrant floral bouquet. Still very sweet and full-bodied, with classic barley-sugar flavour and balance, good length, acidity creeping into prominence, lovely aftertaste. M.B.
