A PRIVATE COLLECTION OF CHATEAU D'YQUEM

Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1966
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé. Château-bottled
Very bin-soiled labels, one torn (missing first two digits of vintage) and two with de Luze slip labels. Levels: one base of neck, one very top and one just below top-shoulder
Tasting note: Most recently, noting its surprisingly deep orange-amber colour; caramelised barley sugar bouquet; rich flavour. Perfect with the terrine of foie gras at Hal Lewis' 'Mr Gourmet' Investiture dinner at the Peabody Hotel, Memphis, Sept 1999 **** Michael Broadbent, Vintage Wine
