*CH D'YQUEM 02 375ML*

Ch D'yquem 02 375Ml

$330.05 375 MLS
Yquem is Sauternes winemaking at its most perfectionistic. There is an almost fanatical obsession for quality, and as a result, Yquem is consistently the richest, most concentrated and most intense wine from the region. Deemed in a class of its own, it is a Premier Grand Cru. Acquired by LVMH after long ownership by the Lur-Saluces family, the quality has been maintained. Yields restricted to 9 hl/ha (one glass per vine). Hand berry picking, fermentation and aging in new oak for three years. 108 hectare under vine, planted to 80% Semillon and 20% Sauvignon Blanc.  RC Nov 09

The greatest sweet wine in the world must be Chateau d’Yquem. 80% Semillon, 20% Sauvignon, fully botrytised grapes picked over multiple passages through the vineyards, aged in new oak for over 40 months. So low are the yields that one vine only produces one glass of this concentrated nectar. RC Dec 07
