Château d’Yquem probably produces the most famous sweet wine in the world. The classic winery from Sauternes is known for its rich, honeyed aromas combined with refreshing acidity. The grapes are harvested by hand in multiple picking rounds, selecting only the grapes with the right degree of noble rot. The history of the chateau dates back to the 18th century, and its reputation has since soared to unprecedented heights. Elegant, complex, and unparalleled. Simply iconic.
Description: Peach, ripe fruit, honey, apricot, soft texture, and viscous.
Pairs well with: A very special moment.
Fun fact: The vineyard is located in Sauternes (Bordeaux) and covers 126 hectares, but not all the land is used to produce wine. In the official classification of 1855, Château d’Yquem was the only estate classified as “Premier Cru Supérieur”.
