Chateau d'Yquem 1988 is a mature Sauternes from one of Bordeaux's most collectible sweet-wine estates. Retailer notes show the vintage as backward-styled and highly concentrated, with honeyed tropical fruit, smoke and botrytis richness, while the listing adds base-neck bottle condition and original wooden-case context for a 12-bottle lot.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Honeyed tropical fruit with smoky orange, coconut and pineapple notes.
- Palate: Full-bodied and concentrated, with layered sweetness, botrytis richness and strong extract.
- Finish: Sensationally long and powerful.
Best For
Collectors seeking mature Yquem in original-case quantity, especially where bottle condition and storage context matter as much as the wine itself.
