drank next to 2005 trotanoy. maybe that was my mistake, but was closed and muted. bad bottle? re-approached bottle 6 mos later with 2007 . Still muted. are 06's going thru a phase? 07 has youthful presence but is very surly. drank like a potential cy young winner.

Hard to put into words my first experience of D'Yquem. AMAZING, PHENOMENAL, ORGASMIC come to mind. So sweet, but so rich and butter, hue was dark peach. Unreal. Balanced honey, peach, butter banana.

Bold. Big surly wine. But very well balanced. Had at vineyard. Hard to pay 550.00 for this bottle after drinking it.
