Château d'Yquem Sauternes is one of the most highly acclaimed sweet wines in the world. Hailing from the Sauternes region of Bordeaux, this luscious, golden-hued wine is crafted from a blend of Semillon, and Sauvignon Blanc grapes that have been affected by "noble rot," a process of berry dehydration brought on by the cooler nights and morning mists of the region. Rich and complex, Château d'Yquem Sauternes is packed with aromas of ripe tropical fruit, honey, and ginger, with a unique combination of sweet, tangy, and fresh flavors. On the palate, it is smooth and creamy, with a balanced, long finish. This is a wine that needs to be savored, and is sure to be a hit at any dinner party.
