YQUEM
The wines of Château d'Yquem are legendary in the world of fine wine. This historic property sits on top of a small hill, with commanding views over its neighbouring Sauternes Châteaux, surrounded by its immaculate and well-tended vines that are famous for bearing the grapes that make this world renowned dessert wine. The history of the buildings at d’Yquem dates back to the 12th Century and the estate itself, established in the 16th Century. Classified in 1855 as Premier Grand Cru Class the reputation and quality of the wines were at that time already widely known and indeed, d'Yquem wines were considered as superior to the other First Growths of the Médoc that were recognised in the same Classification. The most illustrious and successful period of ownership was under the Lur-Saluces Family from 1785-1997 and since that date the property has been owned a by the LVMH group. Because of its trademark richness and opulence, the wines of Château d'Yquem occupy a unique place in the history and appreciation of Fine Wine.
