Profile & Story

Château Suduiraut is a Premier Cru Classé estate in Sauternes, classified in 1855, located in Preignac directly adjacent to Château d'Yquem. The property has been owned by AXA Millésimes since 1992. Like other top Sauternes estates, Suduiraut relies on the region's autumn mists off the Ciron and Garonne rivers to encourage noble rot (botrytis cinerea) in its Sémillon-dominant vineyards, concentrating the grapes for an intensely sweet, age-worthy wine.

Tasting Notes

A classic botrytised Sauternes, typically showing rich notes of honey, apricot, and candied citrus, balanced by the vibrant acidity and racy freshness that keep the wine from feeling heavy.

Pairing Recommendation

Pairs well with foie gras, blue cheese, or fruit-based desserts.
