"Y" is the exceptionally rare dry white wine from Ch d'Yquem. Its production began irregularly in 1959, from berries on which the "pourriture noble" for the Sauternes had not settled. However, from 2004 onwards it was decided to produce this dry wine every year and in a different way, with more freshness and tension. To this end, the team selects annually (now before the botrytis establishes itself) a few bunches of sauvignon and sémillon that are perfectly ripe, for this exceptional wine. This also provides a "relieving" factor in the vineyard for the remaining bunches that serve the liquor (and for the botrytis that settles afterwards). The Berries therefore come from the large vineyard of Ch d'Yquem and benefit from the same care of the team. The wine is vinified in a separate cuverie and fermented "sur lie" in order to have even more intensity. There it matures for 10 months in oak, 1/3 of which is new oak. Only 10,000 bottles are made per year.
