Château d'Yquem 2022
Grand 1er Cru Classé, Sauternes AC, MC
A symbol of elegance and perfection, Château d'Yquem is the only Premier Cru Supérieur of Sauternes, a distinction that confirms its unrivalled status among the great sweet wines of the world. Located on an exceptional terroir, the Château benefits from an ideal microclimate and unique know-how. Each harvest is carefully managed, grape by grape, in rhythm with the noble rot Botrytis cinerea, which refines the grapes. With a perfect balance of richness, freshness and aromatic complexity, each Yquem vintage is a timeless masterpiece, created to last for decades and to develop incomparable greatness over time.
Exceptional and well known to all, Château Yquem is the sweet wine par excellence: rich and harmonious, its mellow texture rests on a long and fresh structure. Two grape varieties give it life: Sémillon, which brings structure and power, and Sauvignon, which is chosen for its aromas and refinement. A very long ageing process (40 months) in new barrels helps Yquem to last for decades.
80% Sémillon and 20% Sauvignon Blanc
