1998 Château d'Yquem - Sauternes 1er Cru Supérieur - 1 Bottle (0.75L)

Château d'Yquem is a prestigious wine estate located in the Sauternes region of Gironde in southwest France. It is known worldwide for producing exceptional sweet wines, particularly from the noble Sémillon grape variety. The 1998 vintage of Château d'Yquem is considered one of the property's great vintages. The year's climatic conditions allowed a late harvest, offering grapes rich in sugar and concentration. The resulting wine is of great aromatic complexity, with notes of honey, apricot, exotic fruits and a subtle touch of spices. On the palate, Château d'Yquem 1998 stands out for its creamy texture, its richness and its perfect balance between the sweetness of the sugar and the freshness of the acidity. Its length in the mouth is remarkable, offering a persistent and elegant finish. This exceptional wine can be enjoyed now, but also has exceptional aging potential which will allow it to improve for many years. Château d'Yquem 1998 is a rare and precious wine, symbol of the know-how and excellence of this great French wine estate.
