Château d'Yquem is a Premier Cru Supérieur wine from the Sauternes, Gironde region in the southern part of the Bordeaux vineyards known as Graves.

Yquem's success stems largely from the site's susceptibility to attack by noble rot . Wines from Château d'Yquem are characterised by their complexity, concentration and sweetness, which is balanced by relatively high acidity. With proper care, a bottle will keep for a century or more, and the fruity overtones will gradually fade and integrate with more complex secondary and tertiary flavours.Since 1959 , Château d'Yquem has also produced a dry white wine called Ygrec , made from an equal blend of Sémillon and Sauvignon blanc.
