Chateau Suduiraut 2016

Château Suduiraut, is a prestigious winery in Bordeaux, France, who is famed for its exceptional sweet wines, particularly Sauternes, boasting a history dating back to the 17th century. Benefiting from a unique microclimate, morning mists from the nearby Ciron River contribute to the development of noble rot on the grapes, crucial for the luscious flavors in Sauternes wines.

Château Suduiraut 2016 reveals a fine golden colour, at first the nose is fresh and delicate. Initially marked by notes of fruit such as yellow peach, candied apricot and kumquat, it leads into aromas from barrel ageing like vanilla, light caramel and spices. On airing, floral and spicy fragrances develop, in particular rose and curry. The attack is soft and fresh. The palate is smooth and velvety with aromas of red fruit, orange and candied pineapple. The finish perpetuates this fresh and elegant mouthfeel. It is invigorated by spices, candied fruit, acacia honey and liquorice.
