2013 Chateau Suduiraut Sauternes 375ml, France
$54.00
From Suduiraut’s gravel-over-clay parcels bordering Yquem, the ’13 shows the estate’s precision in a cooler, high-acid botrytis year. Semillon-dominant, picked through multiple tries, then long-aged in French oak (part new). The profile leans into lifted citrus peel, saffron, and candied stone fruit, with electric acidity tightening the decadent botrytized core. Finishes long, honeyed, and mineral—an elegant, more tensile Suduiraut built for extended evolution (even in half bottle!)
