Yquem 1990

HED2293 75cl 13%
Château d’Yquem is a Premier Cru Supérieur Classé property that not only sits atop the highest hills in Sauternes, it also overshadows most other sweet wines in the world in terms of its extraordinary consistency, complexity and longevity. The 1990 is yet another astonishing release that completes a remarkable trilogy of vintages. It is full-bodied, unctuous and incredibly powerful, with remarkable fruit concentration, deep layers of complexity and seamless balance throughout. Though certainly in its prime drinking window, this has all the necessary elements to continue on an upwards trajectory for perhaps the next two decades.

Chateau d`Yquem

Chateau d`Yquem

Considered by many to be the peak of fine sweet wine, Château d'Yquem manage around over 100 hectares of vineyards in Sauternes planted with a mixture of 80% Semillon and 20% Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes are only picked when the so-called 'noble rot' has fully taken hold and yields are, as a result, meagre - it's said that each vine at d'Yquem produces a single glass of wine.

Fermentation takes place in 100% new oak and the wine is left to mature for up to three years before release. Characterised by an exotic richness in youth, the wine has the ability to age for untold decades. A second wine 'Y de Yquem' is produced in select vintages, a dry counterpart to the Grand Vin.
