1969

[Drew]

Bytemail, can I come to your house and sample the 67' D'Yquem? Here's what WS says:

From one of the 20th century's celebrated vintages for Yquem, this bottle stands up to all the hype--unforgettable for its purity, elegance, harmony, its "total" everything. Powerful, yet it seems weightless on the palate, almost defying gravity as it tangos around with its vanilla, peach and apricot flavors. Seamless, nearly endless finish. Easy to understand its reputation as the greatest Yquem of the last 35 years.--Yquem vertical.Drink now through 2018. 100 points.
That's the good news. The bad news is that 1947 was not a good year for your Pichon-Longueville. Try it and have a back-up handy.
Pick a special occasion, open and share your tasting notes with us for both.
