{"product_id":"1993-chateau-dyquem","title":"1993 Château d'Yquem","description":"\u003cp\u003eChâteau d'Yquem is celebrated for its longevity and extraordinary complexity. The 1993 vintage was a challenging year in Bordeaux due to heavy autumn rains, which makes this bottle particularly interesting; Yquem's strict selection process meant they only produced wine from the best grapes that survived the weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs seen in the photo, the wine has developed a beautiful, deep amber-gold hue typical of a well-aged Sauternes. It is a luscious, botrytized wine that balances intense sweetness with a vibrant vein of acidity, ensuring it never feels heavy on the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eThe Highlights\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eVintage:\u003c\/b\u003e 1993\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eRegion\/Appellation:\u003c\/b\u003e Sauternes, Bordeaux, France\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Château d'Yquem (Lur-Saluces era)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eGrape:\u003c\/b\u003e A blend of \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"18\"\u003eSémillon\u003c\/b\u003e (the backbone and texture) and \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"58\"\u003eSauvignon Blanc\u003c\/b\u003e (the acidity and aroma).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eStyle:\u003c\/b\u003e Luscious, sweet dessert wine (Noble Rot\/Botrytis cinerea).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTasting Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Concentrated notes of dried apricots, honeyed tropical fruits, orange marmalade, and toasted hazelnuts, with subtle hints of vanilla and spice from oak aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,6,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,6,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePerfect for (Food Pairing):\u003c\/b\u003e * \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,6,0\" data-index-in-node=\"30\"\u003eSavory Classics:\u003c\/b\u003e Foie gras is the traditional pairing, but it is also spectacular with Roquefort or other pungent blue cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"7,6,1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,6,1,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,6,1,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDessert:\u003c\/b\u003e Crème brûlée, fruit tarts (especially apricot or peach), or almond-based pastries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,6,1,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,6,1,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eUnexpected:\u003c\/b\u003e Salty appetizers like toasted nuts or even spicy Sichuan cuisine, which plays beautifully against the wine’s sweetness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HaoYue Fine Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43534086537290,"sku":null,"price":950.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/2485\/9722\/files\/ChatGPTImageApr23_2026_11_26_58AM.png?v=1776907660","url":"https:\/\/haoyuefinewine.com.au\/products\/1993-chateau-dyquem","provider":"HaoYue Fine Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
