Château d'Yquem

Château d'Yquem Uncompromising excellence for over 400 years. Château d'Yquem encourages responsible drinking. Without botrytis there can be no Château d'Yquem!

The infinite care and attention lavished on Château d'Yquem's outstanding terroir, consolidated over the centuries by the Lur Saluces’family, earned the estate the unique rank of Premier Cru Supérieur in the 1855 classification. Producing wine at the top classified growth in Sauternes is always an extremely demanding proposition. The selection process takes place every step of the way at Yquem, fr

om the vineyard to the cellar. The best example of this is the meticulous way the grapes are harvested, in several waves, selecting only individual grapes (rather than whole bunches) affected by Botrytis cinerea. This microscopic fungus works a marvellous alchemy, adding special aromas and flavours that utterly transform the wine. This philosophy of extremely careful selection continues in the cellar, where the wine is aged for three years in new oak barrels. In the last analysis, yields amount to just one glass of wine per vine. This infinitely complex, extraordinarily aromatic, nectar can only be made in years when nature cooperates with man. The abuse of alcohol is dangerous for your health.

The harvesters gather at the edge of the plot.
Y 2026 leaves the vineyard for the cellar.
Destiny is a layering of steps.

Three years in a row, the noble rot achieved remarkable levels of purity and complexity, blessing us with an exceptional trilogy of vintages, of which Château d’Yquem 2023 represents the apogee. It seems to combine the crystalline freshness of the 2021 with the sun-powered dynamism of the 2022.

Tasting an old vintage of Y is always a rare experience. A dry white born from the same vines as Yquem, Y carries the light of Sauvignon and the depth of Sémillon, with the remarkable ability to age.
