2004 Château d'Yquem

Community Tasting Note

wrote:

94 Points

Friday, August 29, 2014 - A half bottle. Straight from the cellar to show dinner guests what Yquem should be like after serving them 3 half bottles of the 1990, all sadly oxidised. Light in colour, good nose, fine complex flavours, but still young. More complex than the half bottle of '04 Climens served alongside it.

Nevertheless, if I am lucky enough to be visiting Boston sometime in the next year or two, I would be delighted to accept the invitation which I am sure you intended to include in your comment -- even though it is not apparent either!
