Icon-Icon Opinion :
A glass of 2015 Château d’Yquem says all about exquisiteness of french wine. Château d’Yquem is the only Premier Cru Supérieur (the term describing classification of wine from Bordeaux) of all the wines of Sauternes, since it was by Napoleon III in 1855. Its dedication to the nature- the temperamental climate ruling hillsides around- is what makes the excellence and exclusive character of this wine. Few palaces that give the spirit of wine are worth mentioning: the one of Louis XIV, Napoleon III or even Thomas Jefferson who wrote in 1787, after his visit to France, that Château d’Yquem is the best French white wine.
