We ended with perfection, an extraordinary 1929 Château d'Yquem. While the color was a medium amber, the wine was
incredibly rich, revealing notes of crème brûlée, orange marmalade, caramel, and honeysuckle. This magnificent bottle
concluded the greatest meal along with the greatest wines I have ever had in my life."
From a grand vintage, this is very supple, the creaminess complemented by lemon-spiked acidity. Offers amazing purity of fruit, and a long, pineapple-flavored finish. Great from start to finish
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 20/20 points.
