Honeyed orange, caramelized citrus, flowers, spice, and buttery nuances all emerge from the 2022 Château Suduiraut, a decadent Suduiraut that has a vibrant sense of freshness, perfect balance, and a gorgeous finish. It's a brilliant, opulent Sauternes that's just about impossible to resist yet should evolve for decades if well stored.

There is so much going on here and so much to like about this wine; I do not know where to start. So, let's go with the beginning, and its nose is packed with honey-coated apricots, pineapples, tangerine, vanilla, and a plethora of spices. Intense, powerful, opulent, and palate-coating, what makes everything work is the blazing acidity that lifts up the sweetness that comes from its incredible 190 grams of residual sugar! This is pure decadence for lovers of sweet wines. The wine was made from 100% Semillon for only the third time in the history of the estate.

The 2022 Suduiraut is elegant, gracious and lifted, as the wines here typically are these days. Apricot, cinnamon, dried flowers, mint and orange peel all grace this wonderfully airy, understated Sauternes. Most importantly, the 2022 is a wine of exquisite balance. The 190 grams of residual sugar is quite a bit higher than the norm of 140-150, but that is not particularly evident. This has come together very nicely since I tasted it en primeur. While it might not reach the highs of the most exceptional years, it certainly comes close.

The 2022 Suduiraut reveals a deep, complex bouquet of ripe orchard fruits, caramel, spices and mango. Medium to full-bodied, enveloping and mouth-coating, it’s long and fleshy with great depth at the core and a long, mineral, orchard fruits-inflected finish. Entirely crafted from Sémillon and matured for 18 months in barrels (70% were new barrels), this is a classic in the making and a superb Sauternes. This has 190 grams per liter of residual sugar. -YC
