    A 99-pointer according to Robert Parker, the 1975 d’Yquem is a deep, golden elixir just oozing with “notes of cashew butter, manuka honey, dried apricots, musk perfume and fallen leaves over a core of spice cake, applesauce, fungi and lemongrass. The palate is laden with bright, vibrant stone fruit and preserved citrus fruit flavors, laced with honey-nut accents and finishing provocatively earthy. While intense and hedonically satisfying, this beguiling vintage has so many nuances emerging as it unfurls, it stops you in your tracks.” This is a lifetime bottle of Sauternes, inimitable by any other wine or winemaker on the planet.
