Chateau Suduiraut, Sauternes 1er Cru Classe 2016 (375ml)

97 points Vinous
"The 2016 Suduiraut is fabulous. Crème brûlée, passion fruit, tangerine peel and exotic floral notes all race out of the glass. I marvel at how Suduiraut can deliver so much flavor intensity and yet remain so gracious and classy. The 140 grams of residual sugar are very well integrated. This is such a gorgeous wine. Drinking Window 2024 - 2046."

"The 2016 Château Suduiraut boasts a medium gold color and a fresh, clean, beautifully perfumed bouquet of orange blossom, honeyed pineapple, and flowers, with notable botrytis, which can be lacking in a number of Sauternes in 2016. With moderate acidity, a fleshy, full-bodied texture, and loads of fruits, it’s geared more toward drinking over the coming 10-15 years than any over-the-top cellaring. Maturity 2019 - 2034."

"Tasted blind. Sweet, satin, coconut aromas. Flattering rather than refreshing. Already broachable. Lots there – like a really fancy curry! Long with many layers of flavour and excitement. Kerpow! 18/20 points."
