The greatest sweet wine in the world is made by the masterful team at Ch d'Yquem, the jewel in Sauternes crown. The middle child of a great trio of Yquem (2021, 2022 and the upcoming 2023), the 2022 will be remembered for its concentration and power. The residual sugar levels in 2022 reach 160g/l, making this the second highest sugar level in an Yquem since the legendary 1945 vintage; a comparison that the estate is proud to make. However, there is a delicacy and finesse however to this wine that belies the sugar level and heat of the vintage, with a fresh, energetic acidity that really sets it apart.
