Château of Yquem 1981
Sauternes - First Grand Cru Rated
- 90/100 Parker
- Cellaring : Drink now.
- Tasting : "The 1981 is certainly an exceptional Yquem for the vintage. Light golden, with a bouquet of spice, vanilla oak, fresh melons, and tropical fruit, this Yquem has medium acidity and a round, viscous feel. Remarkably long and clean on the finish."
