CHÂTEAU D´YQUEM 2006

Description:
This legendary Sauternes from Château d'Yquem is a testament to the mastery of sweet wine production in Bordeaux. Crafted from handpicked Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes affected by noble rot, it presents a deep golden colour with amber highlights and releases enchanting aromas of honey, apricot marmalade, orange peel, and hints of exotic spices and toasted almonds. On the palate, it offers a sumptuous and velvety texture, with layers of complex flavours, balanced acidity, and a seemingly endless finish that lingers on the palate. The Château d'Yquem 2006 is a true icon of Sauternes, representing the pinnacle of elegance and refinement in sweet wines.

Pairing:
Château d'Yquem 2006 pairs divinely with a variety of desserts and sweet indulgences. Enjoy it alongside classics such as crème brûlée, peach cobbler, or almond cake. Its honeyed and fruity notes also complement desserts like fruit tarts, lemon bars, or pistachio baklava. For a savoury pairing, serve it with foie gras or aged cheeses such as Roquefort or Gorgonzola to balance its sweetness and enhance its complexity.
