Yquem 1988 Sauternes 1er GCC Supérieur 75cl

BXYQUEM88

"The 1988 d'Yquem has an incredibly profound nose of orange marmalade, dried apricots, honeycomb, musk and dried pineapple with hints of marzipan and crystallized ginger. The palate is seamless with a great line of crisp acid cutting through the densely packed dried tropical fruit and honeyed flavour layers. The finish just goes on and on." R.Parker

A wine with extremely well trimmed, deep and intense botrytis in the nose, and strong aroma of melon, acacia honey and lemon peel. Really incredible intensity on the palate with cascades of tropical fruit like mango and honey melon, and in addition to all the goods, it showed exemplary structure and fantastic balance. This wine did really stuck to the tongue and had a meter long aftertaste. A masterpiece! It has a potential to live 30, 40 or even more years. In April 2012, 7 years later after tasting it previous time, this wine seemed a bit muted, maybe closed. Underperformed a bit compared to 1997 vintage.

The 1988 is a backward-styled Yquem, built along the lines of the extraordinary 1975. With a honeyed, smoky, orange/coconut/pineapple-scented nose, this powerful wine possesses full body, layers of highly concentrated, extracted flavors, considerable botrytis, and a sensational finish.
