Tasting notes
Candied apricot, honey, fresh citrus, vanilla and white flowers; a palate balanced between sweetness and acidity, with a long, fresh finish.
A young vintage, already appealing, that will gain complexity for many years in the cellar.
Serving and storing Yquem
Serve Château d'Yquem chilled, at 10 to 12 °C, but not ice-cold, to preserve its aromas. An opened bottle keeps for several days in the fridge, well stoppered. Lying down in a cool cellar, Yquem has one of the longest ageing potentials of any wine: great vintages can last a century.
Food pairing
Foie gras is the classic match, but Yquem also shines with Roquefort, chicken in a cream sauce, lightly spiced Asian cuisine or a not-too-sweet stone-fruit dessert.

Frequently asked questions
Why is Yquem a "Premier Cru Supérieur"?
In the 1855 classification, Château d'Yquem was the only estate given this rank, placed above all other Sauternes and Barsac wines.
Where does Yquem's sweetness come from?
From noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), which concentrates the sugars in the Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes. The grapes are picked berry by berry, in several passes through the vines.
