Rich tropical fruit and citrus peel surge across the palate with electric energy. The botrytis brings honeyed depth while crisp minerality keeps everything focused and precise. Stone and lime zest extend the finish beautifully. A stunning example that marries opulence with razor-sharp definition.

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.
