Château Suduiraut

The Château Suduiraut is one of the finest wines from the Sauternes vineyard. The property dates back to the 17th century and boasts sumptuous gardens designed by André Le Nôtre, allowing it to blend seamlessly into the vineyard.

The Château Suduiraut was named Premier Grand Cru Classé in the classification of Bordeaux wines officialized in 1855 for the Paris Universal Exhibition.

Owned by the AXA millésimes group since 1992, its quality and reputation have grown steadily to become today one of the finest wines of Sauternes. Nothing is left to chance to meet this objective: passion of the teams, tailor-made choice of plots, selective harvesting, rigorous vinification and blending.

The Château Suduiraut watches over a 91-hectare vineyard planted on sandy-clay gravel soils. The grape varieties are 90% Semillon and 10% Sauvignon Blanc. The wines are aged for 18 to 24 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which are new.

In liquoreux, the estate produces a Second wine, Les Lions de Suduiraut, as well as a third wine, Castelnau de Suduiraut.

The estate also produces four Sec white wines in the Bordeaux appellation, which are in order of quality: the grand vin, a Pur Sémillon cuvée, Lions de Suduiraut and S de Suduiraut.

Description Château Suduiraut 2017.

Classified as a Premier Cru in 1855, Château Suduiraut is one of the pillars of the Sauternes region. Located in close proximity to Yquem, the wine estate benefits from exceptional terroirs composed of sandy gravel on clay subsoil, ideal for concentrating aromas thanks to botrytis. Thanks to rigorous expertise and a constant quest for precision, Suduiraut produces sweet wines of great finesse, combining richness, purity, and balance.

The 2017 vintage has a golden color with brilliant highlights. The nose combines notes of mango and dried apricot with candied citrus zest and honey. A floral touch appears with aeration, bringing freshness. On the palate, the attack is full and silky. The balance between the generosity of the fruit and the acidity is remarkable. Flavors of candied fruit and citrus intertwine with notes of honey, fresh almonds, and a subtle minerality that brings tension and dynamism. The fresh and persistent finish is dominated by notes of candied citrus.

The care we take when receiving wines in our cellars enables us to detect bottles with imperfections (dirty or faded labels, damaged capsules, etc.). In such cases, they are systematically set aside and never put online! Our preparation team selects only bottles with perfect presentation for your orders!

It is these bottles with slight external defects that we present to you in the "Existe en imparfaite" selection. These bottles are, of course, of "irreproachable" gustatory quality, but suffer from slight defects on the label or cap. We therefore offer them at a preferential price, making the pleasure of tasting them even more affordable.
