2024 Château Suduiraut, Sauternes

2024 Château Suduiraut, Sauternes

New release

A bright and vibrant Suduiraut this year made with 100% Semillon and coming in at 130g/l of residual sugar. This is so expressive from the moment it hits the glass with aromas of marmalade, saffron, orange peel, and honeysuckle. There is tension and a burst of freshness on the palate with honeyed apricot and hints of exotic fruit and grilled pineapple that emerge with air. Perfectly balanced, this is a wonderfully fine Sauternes that will evolve with elegance and grace.

Tasting notes

This really is charming, full of marmalade and orange zest, saffron and lime, bitter finish in the best way, gives focus and rises up through the palate. 4.1 TA. 3.83 pH. 130 g/l. 50% new oak. Four passes through the vineyard through to 3rd week of October, with 2nd and 3rd being the heart. Pierre Montegut technical director across both Suduiraut and Pichon Baron. 11.3hl/h yield. Lovely, softly spoken, not the intensity of 2022, but just thoroughly appealing. Eric Boissenot consultant, as at Pichon and at Noval in Portugal.
