Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1947
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé
One recorked at the Château and one with Calvet & Co. slip label. One slightly damaged capsule with signs of seepage. One badly bin-soiled and slightly damaged, one slightly bin-soiled and damaged label. Levels one top and one low-shoulder. One dark and one medium amber colour
Tasting Note: Tasted 15 times. Never a poor bottle. Perfect, glowing amber-gold with apply-green rim; totally harmonious bouquet; still remarkably sweet, mouthfilling with a singed hot-vintage character. It looks the purest glowing gold in a decanter by candlelight. Last noted June 1998 ***** MB
