Château Suduiraut Vieilles Vignes Grand Vin Blanc Sec is made from the prestigious Premier Cru Classé terroir of Sauternes.
This old-vine dry white is produced from a specific selection of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc plots, specifically identified to reveal the elegance and concentration of these two grape varieties.
It perfectly reflects the strength of the terroir - blends lemon peel, ripe pear and toasted hazelnut notes with a long, mineral finish. Polished, fresh, effortlessly smart.
This is a serious, age-worthy wine that can be enjoyed now over further improved over the next decade.
