The history of Château Suduiraut began in 1580 with the marriage of Nicole d’Allard and Léonard de Suduiraut. Classified as a Premier Cru Classé (First Growth) in Sauternes in 1855, it has always been known as a superb property (its neighbor is Château d’Yquem). In the 1990’s, after its sale to AXA, the Château made significant investments in its vineyards and winemaking facilities, which resulted in a dramatic increase in the quality of the wines.
The vineyards of Suduiraut are planted to 90% Sémillon and 10% Sauvignon Blanc on 92 hectares over gravel, sand, limestone and clay soils on sloping hillsides. The wine is fermented in French oak barrels and aged on its lees in 50% new French oak for 18-24 months. The Château produces a third label, Lions de Suduiraut, produced from almost 100% Sémillon (93/7 Sémillon/Sauvignon Blanc).
The Lions de Suduiraut pours a deep golden yellow in color, presenting aromas of tropical fruits infused with floral spice and candied citrus. The palate is generous, textured and packed with energy, with flavors of lychee, caramelized pineapple, orange peel and acacia honey. This lovely wine finishes clean and miles long.
