About this Event
Step into the Legendary World of Château d’Yquem with SPEC’S!
Château d’Yquem… a name that stands alone in the world of wine. Synonymous with perfection, rarity, and timeless elegance, it is the only Sauternes classified as Premier Cru Supérieur in the 1855 Bordeaux classification. Each bottle is the result of meticulous vineyard work, hand-harvested grapes affected by noble rot (Botrytis cinerea), and a careful aging process in oak barrels, creating wines of unparalleled richness, balance, and complexity — that can transcend time.
SPEC’S invites you to a once-in-a-lifetime vertical tasting of exceptional Château d’Yquem and Y d’Yquem (dry) vintages. This is a rare opportunity to explore the evolution of these legendary wines over decades, understanding how acidity, sweetness, and botrytis development interact to create wines that are both powerful and elegant. That evening, a special surprise vintage will also be poured—an extremely rare opportunity to taste a bottle that has never left the estate.
With only a few seats available, this intimate evening allows for close interaction with Lorenzo Pasquini, CEO of the estate, offering the chance to ask questions, learn about vineyard practices, vinification techniques, and the unique terroir that makes Yquem incomparable. Guests will leave with a deeper appreciation of why Château d’Yquem is not just a wine, but a legend.
Events of this kind are rare—don’t miss this golden opportunity to taste history!
