the three best were the 2001 Lafaurie Peraguey (94 pts) – loaded with botrytis – the 2007 Climens (94 pts) – simply stellar and the 1989 Yquem (96+ pts) which was just simply too pure, too perfect. I would prefer the Climens and LP as the Yquem was so pure it reminded me of a chemical out of the chemistry lab – almost industrial levels of purity.

    Glad to hear the 69er is holding up so well. Being my birth year…I have a lone bottle of 1969 Yquem that I’m waiting on, for a special day(probably my 50th!). Hope it is as good as that DV!

    GV….when you visit these Chateau’s and Wineries, you should ask them what the oldest bottle they have in their cellars? Would be really cool to know.

    Buy a bigger memory card! They are cheap! Nice show.

  • That was short but sweet!
    I’ve been limited to a couple of kosher cuvees in the Sauternes category,
    Chateau Piada Sauternes 2001 and Chateau Guiraud Sauternes Premiere Cru 1999.

    They are both aging beautifully and plan to have them around to taste with my great grandchildren (maybe at their weddings).

    L’Chaim!
