🍾 Famed for its glorious aromas of spiced pear and apricot this Sauternes has lovely concentration. Fresh in a powerful way, the flavours are dense and long, with spiced power, depth and warm on the finish. This famous wine is rich, with well-integrated oak, and there’s lots of spice all the way through.
🍾 Deemed the world’s greatest sweet white wine, Château d’Yquem is located on a small hill and benefits from an exceptional micro-climate and terroir. The vineyard encompasses no fewer than 150 plots of different soil, and is pampered throughout the year, with each individual vine undergoing an average of 50 different annual treatments.
🍾 The selection process in Yquem is particularly stringent, with a local saying holding that a single vine makes a single glass of wine. Harvesting involves a minimum of four different passes in order to ensure the grapes harvested have reached perfect maturity and have been affected by noble rot.SKU: n/a
