Yquem 1991
Château d'Yquem, the undisputed icon of Sauternes, embodies the excellence of sweet wines with timeless grace. The 1991 vintage, made from 75% Semillon and 25% Sauvignon Blanc, was born on a clay and gravel terroir, enhanced by the mists of the Ciron, which favor the precious noble rot. This exceptional wine is the result of a traditional vinification process, including rigorous manual selection and three years' ageing in new oak barrels, giving it richness and complexity. Despite the year's challenges, the 1991 vintage seduces with its delicacy and balance. On the palate, it reveals seductive notes of honey, candied fruit, vanilla and white flowers. Its unctuous texture is perfectly balanced by lively acidity, offering a long, harmonious finish. This rare wine goes beautifully with mature cheese or fruit desserts. Château d'Yquem 1991 is a jewel to be savored or collected.
