Description

Chateau d'Yquem 1970
Sauternes
8bn, 1ts, 2vhs, 11lbsl, 1nl, 1ssos, honey color
Bottle (12)
"1970 Yquem is a large-scaled, rich, full-bodied, fairly alcoholic Yquem with significant flavor interest as well as crisp acidity. Unlike the 1971, which is close to peak maturity, this wine has a long way to go and is impressive, but not yet revealing all of its potential. Anticipated maturity: Now-2025." (90 Pts, Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd Ed., Jan 1998)
