  Best Yquem of the night (out of 6). Bottle was ex-chateau and the impeccable storage showed — color was the same light orange as the 1976 and tasted fresher too.
  
  Mineral, electric, dark caramel flavors and barely sweet showed it had a ton of age, but still felt fresh and lively.
  
  Rankings for the night:
  1. 1946 (best overall)
  2. 2010 (most delicious)
  3. 1967 (most interesting)

  Bu chez Marc.
  La robe est brun cuivré soutenue!
  Quel nez superbe et raffiné, surtout du caramel brulé, tire-éponge et Toffee avec un peu de fleur et de dattes….WOW!
  En bouche, c’est velouté et caressant. Du beau caramel et Toffee avec un poil d’acidité lui donnant encore une belle fraicheur.
  Belle longueur et finale délicate tout en finesse.
