9 Vintages of Château d'Yquem: Not Just a Sugar Coating
At Château d'Yquem, terroir blazes brightly,James Molesworth
Non-Blind Yquem Retrospective Tasting

Château d’Yquem 2010
A pure, racy, floral style with bright white peach, heather and honeysuckle notes driving along. The core of fresh orchard fruit notes is unctuous but the finish long and lacy, with marvelous cut and finesse. This shows the balance and elegance of a cooler year with a longer harvest period. Best from 2015 through 2045. 97 points.
Château d’Yquem 2009 2020 through 2050. 98 points.
Château d’Yquem 2007 2015 through 2040. 96 points
Château d’Yquem 2003 now through 2040. 97 points.
Château d’Yquem 2000 now through 2035. 92 points.
Château d’Yquem 1997 now through 2035. 96 points.
Château d’Yquem 1996 now through 2035. 96 points.
Château d’Yquem 1988 now through 2030. 94 points.
Château d’Yquem 1982 Drink now. 88 points.

Wenn ich mich richtig erinnere hat R.Gabriel den 1997 auch immer empfohlen,weil er vielfach preiswerter auf dem Markt erhältlich ist/war.
Den scheint James Molesworth auf gleich guten Level zu sehen .

Aller Anfang ist schwer?
JEAN-PHILIPPE DELMAS in der Zeitschrift "Prestige Hong Kong ";

“Hello, who are you?” Parker said, “I’m Robert Parker, I’m a lawyer and a wine lover who would like to become a wine critic.” And my father said, “But have you an appointment?” Parker said, “No.” And my father said, “Sorry, I have no time!” and he closed the door.
