This 2015 vintage is truly exceptional and stands out as one of the best created by Château d'Yquem.
Château d'Yquem 2015 is an exquisite natural sweet wine, produced in the prestigious AOC Sauternes (Bordeaux, France). This blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc reflects the tradition and excellence of Château d'Yquem, whose reputation has been established over 400 years. In 1855, it reached its highest recognition when it was classified as Premier Cru Classé Supérieur, a unique distinction in its category, making it a legend among great wines.
The Château d'Yquem vineyard covers around 100 hectares, with 75% planted with Sémillon and 25% with Sauvignon Blanc. The Ciron River, a tributary of the Garonne, creates an exceptional microclimate that is crucial for the production of Sauternes. In autumn, before the harvest, the morning fog favors the appearance of Botrytis cinerea, known as noble rot. In addition to the advantages of the soil and climate, Château d'Yquem is distinguished by its craftsmanship and high quality standards. With carefully controlled yields, it produces Sauternes wines whose rarity and prestige are incomparable.
