Château d'Yquem 1973
Sauternes - Premier Grand Cru Classé
Surprisingly successful in what was a mediocre vintage for wines from this region. This is certainly the best wine of 1973 for the Grand Sauternes. The 1973 Yquem is overtly oaky and spicy. It has very good concentration, less sweetness and botrytis than in exceptional vintages, but it is well balanced, fat and long on the palate (only 12% of the crop was used to produce it).
