Description
Chateau d'Yquem 1967Sauternes
ts, lscl, lcc, mahogany color
Bottle (1)
Wines from the Collection of Philip Presler. All wines purchased on release and stored in a temperature and humidity controlled cellar.
"Medium amber/golden with a full intensity bouquet of vanillin spice, honey, ripe pineapples, and coconut, this intense, very ripe, unctuous Yquem has layers of sweet, opulent fruit, excellent balance, and a hefty, powerful finish. Almost too big and rich to be served with food, this wine should be drunk alone as a dessert." (96 pts. Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book 3rd Ed., Jan. 1998)
"Displaying a gorgeous deep amber-gold color, the 1967 d'Yquem slips sensuously out of the glass with a profound perfume of dried mandarin peel, allspice, praline, cinnamon toast and orange blossoms plus hints of gingerbread and accents of lemon butter. The palate is simply electric with citrus and spice-sparked energy, delivering youthfully vibrant notes with a tantalizing floral undercurrent. Superb freshness knit inseparably with the complex sweetness makes this seem like a deceptively delicate, lithe, medium-dry style, even if the truth is far richer yet with edifying persistence. For Sauternes lovers, a perfectly preserved bottle of this wine is undoubtedly the Holy Grail." (99 pts. Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate, Aug. 2019)
