1988 Château d'Yquem

Community Tasting Note

96 Points

Sunday, September 12, 2010 - Bright gold color. Intoxicating nose of honeyed apricots, fresh pineapple, caramel. The midpalate on this was incredible. Highly viscous, very complex flavors of honeyed tropical fruits but not sugary at all. A taut acidic spine throughout kept the balance extraordinary. This is still painfully young, and must be a well kept example. Mama mia!
