Château Latour

Premier Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1963

What is all this talk about bad years? Shone like a star, outplacing four other late-60s first growth Bordeaux. — 12 years ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1979

Contrary to other wines, D'yquem is in a class of it's own in terms of Sauternes. There is rarely, if ever, a bad year, although some years, like the 2001, stand out more than others. The disparity in quality from a GREAT d'yquem to a mediocre one & so on isn't as drastic as one might imagine. While the older vintages seem to age VERY well, it isn't as discernible from a recent vintage as other wines. Sauternes, in general are consistent, & none more than d'yquem. — 12 years ago
