Chateau Suduiraut Description
This wine offers an open nose with some notes of orange, crystallized lemon, grapefruit with highly-rated slightly acid refreshing one. The aromas of White flowers and almond paste complete this range of freshness. The mouth reflects the liveliness of the vintage and reproduces the aromatic range of the nose by adding to it of the pineapple and a vanilla touch thanks to its breeding in barrel. The liqueur is present by the density but remains discreet. The finale leaves especially a very fruity, fresh and slightly acid imprint. This wine presents a pleasant and attractive appearance, which will allow to appreciate it in its youth. According to the previous vintage, 2008, will not have to blush and should propose a vintage greedy and full of charms.

With 135 grams per liter of residual sugar, the 2008 Suduiraut exhales a complex, spicy bouquet of flowers, ripe orchard fruits, plums, herbs (attributed to shriveling rather than noble rot) and vanilla pod mingled with an exotic touch. Medium-bodied, long and round, it’s dense and layered with a delicate core of fruit, though a somewhat metallic, short finish. This blend of 92% Sémillon and 8% Sauvignon Blanc.
