Citrus peel and apricot emerge with mineral precision and bright acidity that lifts the palate. Clean and focused, though it lacks the profound depth and honeyed richness of Yquem's greatest expressions. Shows restraint over opulence.

Yquem

The most celebrated sweet wine estate in the world, Château d'Yquem has anchored Sauternes for centuries. Its 1855 classification as Premier Cru Supérieur remains unchallenged, and its wines set the global benchmark for botrytised Bordeaux.
