The 1969 Château d'Yquem remains a masterpiece, exuding elegance even after more than half a century of aging. Its complex aromas of apricot, honey, and saffron, combined with delicate acidity, create a remarkable finish. This is a truly rare vintage.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
Its amber-colored, mature appearance is striking. The aroma is a blend of dried apricots, hazelnuts, caramel, and subtle hints of orange peel and spice. On the palate, a soft sweetness emanates from the passage of time, and the mild acidity gives the wine balance and elegance. The finish is medium-length, but the pleasant, aged aroma lingers for a long time, evoking a sense of calm and elegance.

Pairing
Foie gras terrine, blue cheese, apricot tart, pear tarte tatin
