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.
The Château Suduiraut 2020, Premier Cru Classé de Sauternes, is an exceptional vintage marked by difficult weather conditions. After a rainy spring, the hot summer of Sec allowed ideal ripening, followed by meticulous harvesting from September 16 to November 5. This 100% Sémillon was aged in new barrels (50%) and one-wine barrels (50%) for 16 to 20 months.
The wine displays great elegance, with aromas of candied fruit, honey and freshness. Its rich, smooth texture and lingering finish make it a remarkable wine for laying down. Production is low (8.5 hl/ha), so this vintage promises to evolve magnificently over time.
