Château d'Yquem 1990

Château d'Yquem is a sweet white wine from Sauternes made from Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc.

A vintage that reflects a beautiful hot and dry summer that was not overly hot. Lasting from 17/9 to 10/10, the harvest was very intense, with picking taking place every day during that time, except weekends.

The weather was excellent, the grapes ideal, and this is an extraordinary and amazingly successful vintage: a great archetypal Yquem with tremendous balance, power and finesse.
