04: Intensives Gelb; lindengrüne Reflexe. Delikates, reines Bouquet; wirkt sehr traubig und zeigt sogar eine Riesling-Affinität. Langer, eleganter Gaumen, reifes Extrakt; Dörraprikosen und Vanille. Wie immer bei einem grossen Suduiraut eine feine Trockenheit, welche die enorme Konzentration anzeigt. 19/20

Intense aromas of pecan pie, dried apricot, apples and syrup. Full-bodied, medium-sweet, with a dense mouthfeel of very ripe fruit and a long, powerful and spicy aftertaste. Very, very impressive. Not quite the 2001, but who's arguing? Best after 2010. 6,500 cases made. –JS

Ex-chateau bottle tasted blind in Sauternes. To be honest, this vintage of Suduiraut has never been thrilling and is certainly not in the same class as the 2001 or 2009, to give two examples. The nose is powerful and rich with scents of Clementine, beeswax and quince that certainly pack a punch. The palate is spicy on the viscous entry with bitter orange, marmalade and stem ginger, although the glycerine-rich finish is missing some freshness and tension. This remains an unashamedly hedonistic Suduiraut.
