Château d'Yquem 1970
Sauternes - "Premier Grand Cru Classé"
90/100 Parker
Cellaring : Drink now, until 2025.
By Robert M. Parker in 1998 : "The 1970 Yquem is a big, rich, full-bodied, fairly alcoholic Yquem with interesting flavors and bright acidity. Unlike the 1971, which is close to full maturity, this wine has a long way to go and is impressive, but not yet revealing its full potential."
