Four centuries of history and twelve generations of wine making passion shared by this family are summed up in the words ‘Chateau d’Yquem Lur-Saluces’. Under the direction of Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy (LVMH) group since 1999 and helmed by Pierre Lurton, Chateau d’Yquem continues to thrive in its legacy. Renowned for its exceptional longevity, time honored management and wine making practices, Chateau d’Yquem set a new Guinness World Record in 2011 when a bottle of the 1811 vintage was sold for £75,000.
