2000 Chateau d'Yquem Lur Saluces Sauternes
HALF BAKED EFFORT
I tasted this next to the G de Guiraud 2012, and was vastly disappointed with the big name d'Yquem effort on this demi sec wine.
The nose was stunning, absolutely worth a lot of descriptions; extremely elegant, and I was swearing it must be using some great fine oak barrels (perhaps leftover used oaks while producing d'Yquem), balanced lovely sweetness and quite bready.
Palate was a disappointment, a bit short and shallow, lacked punch and flavor.
