Description

Chateau d'Yquem is often described as the best sweet wine in the world. After centuries of family management, in 1999 Yquem was sold to Louis Vuitton-Moët-Hennessy. Nevertheless, the former owner and director Alexandre de Lur-Saluces remained at the head of the company. Yquem is located on the highest hill in Sauternes and enjoys the best growing conditions in the entire appellation. The 110-hectare vineyard is planted with 80% Sémillon and 20% Sauvignon Blanc. 150 highly skilled workers harvest only fully botrytised grapes, and yields are so low that only one glass of wine is produced from each vine.

Yquem ferments in oak barrels (100% new) and is left to age in barriques for up to 36 months. Intense and opulent when young, Yquem acquires exceptional complexity and exotic richness when fully mature, with the best vintages lasting for more than 50 years. Château d'Yquem is classified as 1er Cru Classé supérieur.

The perfect food pairing

Hard cheeses, appetizer...

Enjoy the wine immediately or cellar it until it matures. It pairs wonderfully with fruit-based desserts and hard cheeses, but is also an excellent choice as an aperitif.
