Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1981
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé. Château-bottled
Levels: one upper shoulder, others top shoulder or better. All slightly bin-soiled labels, one wine stained label; four slightly raised capsules; two slight signs of old seepage. Offered in carton.
"Light golden, with a moderately intense bouquet of spicy, vanillin oak, fresh melons, and tropical fruit, this full-bodied Yquem has average acidity and a plump, viscous, somewhat precocious feel on the palate. Remarkably long and clean in the finish, it will develop relatively rapidly. Anticipated maturity: Now-2015." Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd ed. (1998)
