The half bottle is the format Yquem was meant for at table: one glass each for six, with the last of the cheese. The 1990 is one of the estate’s three perfect vintages of the decade.
What the cellar holds
In the cellar: 1990 (two halves, 100 points) and 2023 (six halves, 100 points).
Vintages in the cellar
Croian & Hein places bottles like this one with a small circle of collectors in Switzerland: discreetly, by appointment, and with the condition of every bottle described plainly before it travels.
