Château d'Yquem 1937
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé
Slightly bin-soiled label. Level top-shoulder
Tasting note: If well cellared, then certain still to be superb. Fairly deep colour, less so than the ’21 and ’29. Most recently: a fairly deep warm amber with green rim; very distinctive nose, fragrant, complex, harmonious yet with a refreshing, piquant citrus scent; sweet, very rich, mouth-filling, soft, gentle caramel flavour, excellent ’37 acidity giving it a dry finish. Superb. June 2003 ***** M.B.
