It was the only Sauternes château rated as Premier Cru Supérieur in the official Classification of 1855, and is priced accordingly. The Yquem estate, owned by the King of England in the Middle Ages, has produced late-harvest wine since at least the late 1500s. The 103 hectare (254 acre) vineyard is situated on the highest hill in Sauternes. The soils here are perfect for the production of sweet wine – a warm, dry topsoil of pebbles and course gravel lies over a clay subsoil that retains generous water reserves, aiding with the development of noble rot, and there are around 60 miles (100km) of drains to prevent waterlogging. At any one time around 12ha (30 acres) of vineyard are either fallow or have young vines not suitable for production.In the winery, the grapes are pressed three or four times, with increasing pressures yielding lower volumes but higher sugar levels. Yquem is fermented in new oak barrels for maximum control over small lots. The cellar team have an ideal target of 13.5 percent abv for a wine with 120 to 150 grams per liter of residual sugar, though the alcohol content can vary either way by about 1 percent depending on sugar levels.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-09T11:46:41-05:00","created_at":"2023-02-23T04:02:58-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","nini2302","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Château d`Yquem","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Sauvignon Blanc","Varietal_Semillon"],"price":13759899,"price_min":13759899,"price_max":13759899,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42798705934474,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1899 - 2009 | Château d'Yquem | Assortment","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":13759899,"weight":110223,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/25_e34b451f-7639-4f22-9f57-8f3e1388f549.png?v=1677143004"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/25_e34b451f-7639-4f22-9f57-8f3e1388f549.png?v=1677143004","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1899 - 2009 | Château d'Yquem | Assortment at CaskCartel.com","id":24274823020682,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.758,"height":715,"width":542,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/25_e34b451f-7639-4f22-9f57-8f3e1388f549.png?v=1677143004"},"aspect_ratio":0.758,"height":715,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/25_e34b451f-7639-4f22-9f57-8f3e1388f549.png?v=1677143004","width":542}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 1899 - 2009 | Château d'Yquem | Assortment \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 9-bottle collection from one of the world`s greatest sweet wine producers - Chateau d`Yquem.
