Community Tasting Note

  • DDH-VitisVinifera Likes this wine: 92 points

    May 20, 2013 - from auction. Opened the night before and noticed the wine needed some time to get back the viscosity or thickness that you would associate with this old yquem. Decided to take a glass each and drank the remainder over lunch the next day. A wise decision. Incredible creme brule and notes of caramel. Color like caramel. Lacked the freshness and acidity other great vintages have which make the wine a bit too heavy. Nevertheless, a wine at age 60 that gave enormous pleasure... still my favorite wine...
