Description
Tasted blind at the Sauternes 2011 horizontal tasting. The Château Suduiraut 2011 has a muffled nose at first: dried honey and quince, wet wool and marzipan scents that gradually open up with aeration. Coming back after 10 minutes there is a heartwarming gingerbread note. The palate is viscous on the entry and full of tension. There is a keen line of acidity here, quite linear at first, but it fans out nicely toward the finish and offers notes of honey, mandarin and even a touch of rhubarb! This is a class act, a Sauternes that does not need to shout about its inherent qualities.

Tasting note
2013年的旭金堡酒莊，這款來自薩特恩的一級酒莊佳釀，是奢華與平衡的完美交響曲。這金色甘露，帶有熱帶水果如芒果和楊桃的暗示，層次豐富，融合了奶油焦糖的濃郁與橘子的清新。經過新桶和單一年份桶的混合陳年，它發展出一個複雜的味道檔案，木質和香料與馬鞭草的新鮮感交織。口感是一段奢華的旅程，穿越菠蘿和梨的風味，最後以持久的礦物質收尾，彰顯其卓越風土的故事。
The 2013 Chateau Suduiraut, a Premier Cru from Sauternes, is a symphony of opulence and balance. This golden elixir, with its hints of tropical fruits like mango and star fruit, is layered with the richness of milky caramel and the zest of tangerine. Aged in a mix of new and single vintage barrels, it has developed a complex profile where wood and spice dance with verbena's freshness. The palate is a luxurious journey through flavors of pineapple and pear, leading to a persistent mineral finish that speaks of its distinguished terroir.
