The estate

Château d’Yquem's reputation has been built over 400 years, with a high point in 1855 when it was recognised as a Premier Cru Classé Supérieur in the official classification established by request of Emperor Napoleon III for the Paris Exposition Universelle. The only wine estate to have achieved this honour, Yquem sits unchallenged among the legendary great wines.

The vines

Château d’Yquem has around one hundred hectares in production, planted with 75% Semillon and 25% Sauvignon Blanc. The Ciron, a tributary of the Garonne River that is essential to the creation of Sauternes wines, provides an exceptional micro-climate for the vines on the estate. It is, in fact, thanks to the action of the autumnal morning mists, just before the harvest, which leads to the appearance of the Botrytis Cinerea “noble rot”. Other than the characteristics of the “terroir” and climate, Château d’Yquem's reputation also owes much to expertise and excellence. With a drastically limited yield, Château d’Yquem produces Sauternes wines made prestigious by their rarity.

Sauternes 3: Batches of 4 vintages from 2011 to 2016, bottled in 2017
Sauternes 5: Batches of 3 vintages from 2014 to 2016, bottled in 2019

Buongiorno grazie. La bottiglia è stata conservata in cantina nel tempo. Il vino è come le persone: è materia viva.

spese di spedizione eccessive per il tipo di imballo, ma soprattutto, avendo acquistato due prodotti identici dallo stesso venditore, ho chiesto di poter avere un'unica spedizione! non c'è stato verso

The bottles of port that were delivered both spoiled. Very cloudy and stinky. Cork is completely decayed. Buying these bottles was very bad. Wonder if this was not known to the seller

Fast delivery and well packed, but unfortunately both (Graham's 30y Tawny) are in totally undrinkable condition. Buyers risk & mistake but will not buy again. As expected price was too good to be true

shipped quickly, but the packaging was not very effective for how much wrapping was used. the wooden box was smashed in the hinges and splintered. bottle was well protected though.
