Château d’Yquem
Experiencing Yquem is a journey into flawless excellence, into the heart of endless layers of richness, profundity and exotic flavours. Tasting Yquem is awe-inspiring, both for its beauty and also because of the constant awareness that this degree of opulence and concentration can only be achieved at the cost of immense skill, care and financial sacrifice. Making Sauternes, with its elements of botrytis and extreme ripeness, forever at the mercy of the weather, is always a fiendish pursuit, but making Yquem goes into new realms of endeavour - it is a world unto itself.


2009 Tasting Note
Grapefruit, white peaches and ginger on the nose. Like exploding stars on the palate. Flavours of gingerbread finishing on lemon. Real elegance and such freshness.
