Château d'Yquem 1988: A Grand Classic of Sauternes
The only property classified as 1er Cru Supérieur 1855, Château d'Yquem is a legend in Sauternes and Bordeaux, but it is also one of the most famous and prestigious wines in the world. Its story is a historical fresco, made of twists and turns, moments of glory and difficult moments. Even with its glorious reputation, Château d'Yquem continues to promote modernity, authenticity and know-how so that the quality of each of its wines lives up to its name. Even if the Sauternes property produces bottles only in quality vintages, 1988 still stands out for its unusual weather. Heat in spring with a lot of humidity, flowering is late. The delay has not really been made up despite good weather from July. Harvests begin in mid-October and the ideal late season weather means there is no rush to pick each berry at a perfect botrytization stage. In the end, Château d'Yquem 1988 was born after 6 exceptional sortings spread out until the end of November. The result is a great Sauternes full of fullness, with aromas of citrus marmalade, honey, white chocolate or even yellow stone fruits. To be consumed until 2050 or more.
