1811 Chateau d’Yquem

The 1811 Chateau d'Yquem is the world's most expensive bottle of white wine, selling for $117,000 US dollars. If you have the money to buy a bottle, it is known for being very sweet and enjoyable to sip on. This wine is expensive because it was made during the Napoleonic Wars, in the year of the great comet, and has aged gracefully despite what it has been through. When poured into a glass for drinking, the wine has a dark, sparkling amber or bronze-like color.

The wine's dark color was not always a feature of the 1811 Chateau d'Yquem. In fact, at its young age, the wine is a sparkling pale gold color. This pricey bottle of white wine has hints of saffron, honey, pineapples, and lime and is made from sauvignon blanc (20%) and semillon grapes (80 percent ). If you are ever given this wine, or if you purchase a bottle for yourself, make sure you savor every drop of its opulence.
