Recioto, 1983
Lenotti

Chateau d'Yquem, 1982
Sauternes 1er Grand Cru Classe
Sweet White Wine
Yquem is indisputedly the best wine in Sauternes and may well be the finest sweet wine in the world.
92 Points, Neal Martin, The Wine Advocate, 26th Jun 2014
Served from an ex-chateau bottle. Sauternes only produced two exceptional wines in 1982: Suduiraut and Yquem. Although I have encountered the 1982 Chateau d’Yquem on three occasions, this is the finest bottle. It was an early vintage, physiological ripeness reached on September 16. Rainfall interrupted the harvest that really could not start in earnest until November 2, for just four days. It has a lucid amber color, and a fully mature bouquet with mandarin and marmalade aromas that are pure and well-delineated. …

Vin Santo, 1980
Frescobaldi
Vino Santo has been made in Tuscany since at least medieval times, and was probably named 'holy wine' because of its use during the Mass. Antinori has been making vinsanto for centuries. A dessert wine bright yellow in colour with amber hues. Generous, complex aromas with hints of honey and dried fruit. A well-structured, pleasantly sweet and lingering flavour.

Chateau La Tour Blanche, 1979
Sauternes
Sweet White Wine
The 1979 Château La Tour Blanche Sauternes, a Premier Cru Classé from the Sauternes appellation, exemplifies the estate's commitment to producing refined and age-worthy sweet wines. Crafted predominantly from Sémillon, with smaller proportions of Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle, this vintage reflects the favorable conditions of the 1979 harvest, which allowed for the development of noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), essential for the concentration and complexity characteristic of Sauternes wines.
In the glass, the 1979 La Tour Blanche displays a golden yellow hue, indicative of its maturity. The nose reveals an intense exotic expression with notes of pineapple, …

Chateau Raymond-Lafon, 1978
Sauternes
The 1978 Château Raymond-Lafon is a lesser-known gem from Sauternes, offering a unique profile compared to other vintages from this sweet wine-producing region. In a year that was challenging for Bordeaux as a whole, Château Raymond-Lafon produced a Sauternes with subtle, refined characteristics. The wine displays golden hues with aromas of honey, dried apricots, marmalade, and a touch of almond. On the palate, it is medium-bodied, with flavors of candied citrus, honeyed fruit, and hints of vanilla and spice, showcasing good acidity that keeps it balanced and refreshing.
While it may lack the opulence of standout Sauternes vintages, …

Chateau Rieussec, 1978
Sauternes 1er Cru Classe
Sweet White Wine
Beautiful copper in colour with bouquet that can fill a room with apricots and gardenia with a hint of ocean breeze. In the mouth it is wonderfully delicious as most desert wines are but what set this apart is it's not so sweet with good firm tannin structure and a bit of honeydew and cinnamon on the back end. Also as with most desert wines the finish lingers for (seemingly) hours and butter, honey, and citrus coating your throat. This wine is absolutely wonderful.
Château Rieussec, located in the Sauternes appellation of Bordeaux, France, is renowned for its prestigious history and exceptional sweet wines. …

Picolit, 1977
Livio Felluga
Picolit is an indigenous grape produced in tiny quantities in the cool climates of the Colli Orientali (Friuli). The pallor of this precious passito, and the delicacy of its soft, floral aromas belie the elegant intensity of its flavour where creamy honey, white flowers, white peach and marzipan are beautifully balanced by a refreshing zip of acidity.

Rivesaltes, 1974
Domaine Casenobe, Rivesaltes VDN 1974 - Fortified Sweet Wine.
1959 Mas de la Garrigue, Vieux Rivesaltes – Fortified Sweet Wine
A beautifully aged Vin Doux Naturel from the sun-baked slopes of Roussillon, the 1959 Mas de la Garrigue Vieux Rivesaltes captures the soul of southern France in a bottle. Produced primarily from Grenache Blanc and Grenache Gris, fortified to preserve natural sweetness, and aged for decades in old oak casks, it has developed remarkable depth, complexity, and harmony.
In the glass, it glows a deep amber-bronze with golden reflections — the hallmark of long oxidative maturation. The nose is stunningly complex, unfolding layers of dried apricot, fig, and orange peel, laced with caramel, honey, toasted almond, and nutmeg. …

Chateau Broustet, 1971
Sauternes, Sweet White Wine
The 1971 Château Broustet, a Deuxième Cru Classé from the Barsac appellation, represents a mature expression of Sauternes from a vintage noted for its elegance and freshness. While specific tasting notes for this vintage are scarce, insights can be drawn from the estate's winemaking practices and the general characteristics of the 1971 harvest.
In 1971, Sauternes and Barsac experienced favorable conditions for the development of noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), leading to wines that, while not exceptionally concentrated, offered freshness and refined acidity. Château Broustet's vineyards, situated on clay-limestone and gravel soils, are planted predominantly with Sémillon, complemented by Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. …

Chateau Liot, 1971
Barsac, Sweet Wine
The 1971 Château Liot Sauternes is a rare and mature sweet wine from the Barsac appellation in Bordeaux. Château Liot is known for producing elegant, botrytis-affected wines primarily from Sémillon, with smaller proportions of Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle. While detailed tasting notes for the 1971 vintage are scarce, the wine's longevity suggests it has developed complex tertiary aromas and flavors over time.
Given the age of this vintage, the wine likely exhibits a deep amber color, with notes of dried fruits, honey, and nuts on the nose. On the palate, one might expect a balance between residual sweetness and acidity, with flavors of caramel, apricot, and perhaps a hint of spice. …

The massively rich, yet fresh, lively 1970 offers a compelling, flowery, honeyed bouquet of vanilla custard, buttery orange/apricot scents, and smoky ceme brulee.

This beautiful Sauternes from the excellent 1970 vintage displays an orange/copper hue. On the nose and palate aromas of orange marmalade, delicate caramel, and layers of honey create a sweet and elegant wine, with great acidity which gives it verve. Drinking very nicely now, but with lots of life left.

*** 94 Points Cellar Tracker ***
Reviews
"There is always a high level of star gazing when a bottle of old Yquem shows up. Even an ok bottle like this makes you feel a million bucks. Dark caramel in colour. Apricots on the nose, sweet glycerin. On the palate it is well evolved full of ripe fruit, botrytis and although it is low in vitality it still makes for a superb experience. We can not be unbiased to the star gazing here but this is a good 94" CellarTracker.com

Chateau Filhot, 1969
Sauternes 2eme Cru Classe
Sweet White Wine
This 1969 Chateau Filhot wine comes from the famous Sauternes area near Bordeaux, France. The wines of Sauternes are sweet but also fine and delicate. Their bouquet develops very well with ageing, becoming rich and complex, with crystallized orange, marmalade, hazelnut and honey notes with good acidity that offers excellent balance against the sweetness of the wine. This is a remarkably good wine for a bottle of such age.
