Give me a TBA over this any day, but I can't deny that the 95' d'Yquem was excellent. G says it's a wine of love ❤️ True. The groups fondness for it aside, the wine is sort of what love is - strong, sweet, a little bitter sometimes, always unfolding to reveal something new, and most importantly neverending. 95' gets 95!

The world’s best finish to a meal (or at anytime) and one of my all time favorite wines, luscious and rich with apricot marmalade, candied pineapple, acacia honey and a long, opulent and lingering creamy finish.

Tangy in color. Deep and sweet and voluptuous with great toasty fruit. Lemon curd and honeyed with bright white flowers and huge thrust. Very good

More of an elegant and lighter vintage, notes of candied orange, marmalade of apricots and honeysuckle

Surpassed extremely high expectations from our crew. My first time and hopefully there will be more. Amazing.
