Regarded as the best sweet wine in the world, Château d'Yquem is the 1st Classified Growth of Sauternes wines.
Located south of Bordeaux, the castle's vineyard covers 113 hectares and is cultivated in a traditional way. A vine is needed to produce a glass of Yquem!

Pierre Lurton, CEO of Yquem declare about this 2020 vintage : “in order to further preserve the primary aromas. The 2020 expresses well what we want to do. The key word is delicacy. We looked for silkiness and zesty bitterness on this lingering finish which is the signature of botrytis”.

This 2020 vintage Château d'Yquem is conducted in organic farming

Despite the unpredictable weather, the vintage was a tremendous success!

In 2020, winegrowers played an essential role, meticulously caring for the vines right until the harvest, before noble rot waved its magic wand in late October, rewarding all their efforts.

We recommend you to book today, the vintage will be rare.

The advice of 12bouteilles: This Sauternes wine can be appreciated as young as in a few years.
