Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1988
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé
Level: into neck; lightly nicked label
"As on other occasions, a tremendous wine, with great aromatic precision and depth that other châteaux do not exhibit. Tropical, spice and lactic aromas are definitely there, but the botrytis is more pronounced, and there is a deep note of caramel that rounds out the impression and echoes on the finish."
