Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1953
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé
Level: into neck; corroded capsule, heavily bin soiled label
"...though always on the pale side it was taking on a shade of mahogany with age with a sort of hefty fragrance, good length, sweet. It is still one of my favourite Yquems though thoroughly upstaged by the three great post-war vintages ('45, '47 and '49). Last noted at Rodenstock's marathon tasting in Munich, Sept 1998 ****" MB, Vintage Wine
