Note di degustazione
Despite a challenging year, half of the crop was lost due to an invasion of Drosophila suzukii, the 2014 Suduiraut is showing very well today, evoking aromas of pineapple, baked white fruits, ripe orchard fruits, lemon and spices. Moderately weighted, layered and round, it’s perfectly balanced with an elegant, fresh mid-palate that is long and ethereal on the finish. This blend of 95% Sémillon and 5% Sauvignon Blanc, matured for 18 months in 50% in new oak and 50% in one-year-old barrels, was picked in four tries between September 12 and October 30 with a tiny yield of seven hectoliters per hectare.

The 2014 Suduiraut is an impressive Sauternes, with exquisite definition on the nose with quince, yellow plum and marmalade, demonstrating more precision than the Rieussec alongside. The palate is taut and focused, armed with a silver bead of acidity, precise and sharp with orange zest, apricot and quince towards the harmonious and almost penetrating finish. Outstanding. Tasted at Bordeaux Index's 10-Year-On tasting. (NM)
Tasted blind. Deeper gold than some 2014s. Ripe golden aromas of apricot and spice. Viscous, broad and honeyed on the palate. Deep, long and balanced. (JH)
Tawny gold at the 10 year point, beautifully concentrated butterscotch and silky lemon peel and citrus, powerfully poised and lifted, great quality. 50% new oak, 150g/l residual sugar.
Informazioni sul produttore
Among the very best Sauternes estates, Ch. Suduiraut is owned by AXA Millésimes, which also manages Pichon Baron. The team works meticulously to select the finest fruit from its 91 hectares of vines, bordering Yquem. The resulting wines are intensely concentrated, balanced, complex and age-worthy.
