Château d'Yquem is a prestigious winery located in the Sauternes region of Bordeaux, France. The estate has a long and rich history dating back to the 18th century when it was owned by the Lur-Saluces family. Today, it is owned by the luxury goods company LVMH.

Château d'Yquem is known for producing some of the world's finest sweet white wines, made from a blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes that have been affected by noble rot. This process, known as botrytization, concentrates the sugars and flavors in the grapes, resulting in a wine that is rich, complex, and full of character.

The winery produces only one wine, the Château d'Yquem, which is considered to be one of the greatest sweet wines in the world. The wine is aged in oak barrels for up to three years before being bottled, and can be aged for decades or even centuries.

Château d'Yquem has a unique style of production that sets it apart from other wineries in the region. The winery uses a selective harvesting process, where only the grapes that have been affected by noble rot are picked. This results in a lower yield, but a higher quality wine.

The winery also uses a unique barrel aging process, where the wine is aged in new oak barrels for the first year, and then transferred to older barrels for the remaining two years. This allows the wine to develop complexity and depth, while also preserving its freshness and acidity.

Château d'Yquem has a long and storied history, with many famous figures having enjoyed its wines over the years. The winery was even mentioned in the novel "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, where it was described as "the finest wine in the world."

Today, Château d'Yquem continues to produce some of the world's most sought-after sweet white wines, with each vintage being eagerly anticipated by wine lovers around the globe. Its unique style of production and rich history make it a true icon of the wine world

There was no frost at d’Yquem in 2017, and botrytis was very regular and even this vintage. The nose opens with very pure notes of freshly sliced oranges, yuzu and lemon barley water with hints of white pepper, fresh ginger and lime cordial. The incredibly rich, unctuous sweetness (148 grams per liter of residual sugar) is beautifully marbled with bright, vivacious citrus fruit and spice flavours, while lifted by well-knit freshness, and it finishes with epic length and great depth.

De neus opent met elektrische tonen van rijpe ananas, groene mango, sinaasappelbloesem en citroentaart met hints van schimmels, limoenschil, steentjes en jasmijn. De frisheid in de mond is gewoon verbazingwekkend, doordringend en laag na laag van tropisch fruit en aardse noties, allemaal omhuld in een weelderige textuur en culminerend in een zeer, zeer lange, mineraal getinte afdronk. Dit is echt een legendarisch wijnjaar voor d'Yquem. Ik ben hier conservatief geweest met mijn drinkvenster en het zou me helemaal niet verbazen als onze nakomelingen dit wijnjaar tot ver in de volgende eeuw drinken.
Tt entrances with its pure, wild honey notes mixed with almond and white chocolate scents, bestowed with beguiling delineation and focus. The palate is very poised with the acidity nigh on perfect. Occasionally an Yquem only reveals its components parts at this early juncture, necessitates conjecture. However, the 2014 has a sense of harmony and completeness already, as if the élevage is merely there to usher it on to its finished state. There is undeniably great depth here, perhaps less conspicuous than other vintages because of that silver thread of acidity: notes of lemon sherbet, orange zest, shaved ginger and again, a few "flakes' of white chocolate. It is extremely long with tenderness rather than power on the finish. It's not quite up there in the rarefied heights of say, the 2001 or 2009, but it is what we call in the trade, "the business."

Pale to medium gold colored, the 2009 d'Yquem bursts from the glass with gregarious crème caramel, allspice, dried apricots, mandarin peel and pineapple upside down cake scents plus a fragrant undercurrent of fungi, acacia honey, candied ginger, musk perfume and frangipani. Full-bodied and full-on hedonic in the mouth, the rich, tightly wound layers are still amazingly youthful with bags of citrus sparks and an incredibly long, perfumed finish.

Château d'Yquem wordt vaak omschreven als de beste zoete wijn ter wereld en heeft een reputatie die het van de middeleeuwen tot vandaag de dag heeft gevolgd. In die tijd was d'Yquem eigendom van de koning van Engeland en sindsdien heeft het een interessante geschiedenis, waaronder het gebruik als militair hospitaal in beide wereldoorlogen. In 1996 werd d'Yquem na eeuwenlang familiebezit gekocht door LVMH (Moët-Hennessy-Louis Vuitton) van Alexandre de Lur Saluces.

Château d'Yquem heeft 113 hectare wijngaarden beplant met 80% Semillon en 20% Sauvignon Blanc, gelegen op het hoogste punt van Sauternes met een uniek microklimaat. Dit is enorm belangrijk, want het zorgt ervoor dat winden uit het oosten door de wijngaard bewegen, wat cruciaal is om ongewenst vocht te verwijderen tijdens het groeiseizoen wanneer de edele rotting begint. Alleen volledig gebotteld fruit wordt geplukt door 150 zeer bekwame wijngaardmedewerkers en de opbrengsten zijn zo laag dat elke wijnstok slechts één glas wijn produceert.

In de classificatie van Bordeaux van 1855 werd Château d'Yquem niet alleen geprezen als de beste wijn van Sauternes, maar van de hele Bordeaux-regio.

"Ik noem Yquem geen wijn omdat er oneindig veel 'wijnen' zijn, maar Yquem is uniek. Ik geef de voorkeur aan het woord nectar - de drank van de goden - en als ik een nobeler woord zou vinden, zou ik me minder schamen voor onze beperkende woordenschat die zo slecht geschikt is voor superlatieven." Frederic Dard

Château d'Yquem was ook een van de eerste grote landgoederen die fraude bestreden door een watermerk op hun etiket te zetten.

Bordeaux, in het zuidwesten van Frankrijk, behoeft weinig introductie als een van de beroemdste, meest prestigieuze en productiefste wijngebieden ter wereld. De meeste Bordeaux-wijnen (bijna 90 procent van het productievolume) zijn de droge, medium en volle rode Bordeaux-blends die de reputatie van Bordeaux hebben gevestigd.

De beste (en duurste) daarvan zijn de wijnen uit de grote châteaux van de Haut-Médoc en de rechteroever appellations Saint-Émilion en Pomerol. In de eerste ligt de nadruk (op topniveau) op cabernet sauvignon, in de tweede op merlot.

De legendarische rode wijnen worden aangevuld met witte wijnen van hoge kwaliteit op basis van Sémillon en Sauvignon Blanc. Deze variëren van droge witte wijnen die de beste uit de Bourgogne uitdagen (Pessac-Léognan is bijzonder vermaard) tot de zoete, gebottelde nectar van Sauternes.
