d'Yquem By Glass + d'Yquem Meals

[cabrales]

I'd appreciate leads on where d'Yquem can be sampled by the glass in London (and, if conveniently available, the years offered and general price ranges).  Gordon Ramsay Royal Hospital Road is the only place that I have noted.

Below are the menus for two seemingly wonderful meals featuring d'Yquems, from Richard Olney's book "Reflexions":

1. At Taillevent, Paris, 15 July 1985

Consumme de Crustaces en Gelee (Gelee of shellfish broth) -- Krug Grande Cuvee

Turbot Braise, Sauce au Sauternes (Braised turbot with a sauce of sweet wine from the region in which d'Yquem is located) -- d'Yquem 1945  

Ragout de Ris de Veau, de Truffes, de Foie Gras et de Cretes de Coq; Granite de Melon Charentais au Champagne (Ragout of sweetbread, truffles, foie gras and crest of roosters; Granite of melon with champagne) --  d'Yquem 1937

Canteon a l'Aigre-Doux (Sweet and sour duckling) -- d'Yquem 1921   :)

Fromages Persilles (Cheese) -- d'Yquem 1980

Blanc-Manger (Dessert containing, among other things, almond?) -- d'Yquem 1893 (no typo) :)

Krug 1979 Pour Vous Refraichir le Palais Entre Chaque Plat -- to refresh the palate after each plate

2. At French Culinary Institute, New York, October 21, 1986

Aperitif "Y" (Uncertain if this refers to d'Yquem taken as an aperatif or a distinct item)

Salade Francoise, Potato, Truffle & Artichoke Salad, Flavored with Chateau de Fargues -- Chateau de Fargues 1981

Ragout de Homard a la Creme d'Oursin (Lobster and Sea Urchin Ragout) -- d'Yquem 1980  :)

Epaule d'Agneau Braisee aux Cepes (Shoulder of lamb braised with porcini mushrooms -- Chateau Talbot 1979

Crepes aux Pommes (Hot Apple Crepes) -- d'Yquem 1975

Not in London, and probably too late to be useful, but I've recently become curious about d'Yquem, so I'll note the following places where I've noticed d'Yquem by the glass recently in the hopes that this thread might become a bit of a resource.

Union Square Cafe has glasses of the 1990 vintage for $49.

Restaurant Imperial in Vienna has glasses of '93 for 30 Euro (small glasses).
