The 2024 vintage of Château Suduiraut, Premier Cru Classé de Sauternes, follows in the great tradition of exceptional sweet wines, while brilliantly expressing the personality of a complex vintage.
Made exclusively from Sémillon, harvested by successive selections between September 19 and October 24, this wine highlights the precision of the vineyard work and the unique know-how of the estate.
After a rainy spring marked by mildew, the hot, dry summer allowed the berries to concentrate beautifully.
The rapid and uniform appearance of noble rot in mid-September, followed by periods of fine weather, favored a meticulous and spread-out selection, ensuring the purity and richness of the musts. The final yield is 11.3 hl/ha, reflecting our constant commitment to quality.
Vinified in barrels, 50% of which are new, and aged between 16 and 20 months, this Sauternes has a brilliant golden color. The nose reveals aromas of roasted apricot, white flowers and candied fruit, supported by an elegant toasty note. On the palate, the texture is dense but balanced, with freshness and perfectly integrated sugar (130 g/l). The long, suave finish hints at great ageing potential.
A pure, racy Sauternes, confirming Château Suduiraut's status as one of the appellation's great references.
Harvest dates: September 19 and October 24, 2024
