1995 Château d'Yquem - Sauternes 1er Cru Supérieur - 1 Bottle (0.75L)
TRUE KING OF BORDEAUX' SWEET WINES!
Very warm, dry weather from May to August was followed by 110 mm of rain in 24 hours... There was enough precipitation in September to trigger botrytis, which then spread well. The weather was very cooperative from that point on. The grapes had 16° potential alcohol when the harvest started, but this rose to 30 within two weeks – by which time we had fortunately finished picking. The waiting paid off, and the grapes picked at different stages combined beautifully to make a wine that is both unique and fabulous!
RP 95/100
When to drink: now to 2035
Stored in a private cellar at 12° and 80% humidity.
