Liquid gold with electric acidity that lifts honeyed pear, orange blossom and wet limestone. The sweetness feels weightless despite its richness, building layers of spice and citrus zest through a seemingly endless finish. Pure class from this legendary estate.

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.
