This is a powerful style, with a mix of creamed pear, fig, papaya and persimmon flavors liberally laced with crème brûlée and orange blossom honey notes, through a ginger-tinged finish. In line with the vintage's forward persona, but this has notably more breadth and depth than most of its peers. Best from 2023 through 2038. 5,333 cases made. –JM

A very concentrated Sauternes with a cornucopia of dried papaya, pineapple and mango, plus candied orange and tropical flowers that bowl you over. Although it stays in the background, there’s great acidity in this wine that keeps it very straight and clean, in spite of the luscious extravagance. Bright, citrusy finish. Drink or hold.

The 2016 Suduiraut is fabulous. Crème b?rlée, passion fruit, tangerine peel and exotic floral notes all race out of the glass. I marvel at how Suduiraut can deliver so much flavor intensity and yet remain so gracious and classy. The 140 grams of residual suga are very well integrated. This is such a gorgeous wine.

Pale lemon in color, the 2016 Suduiraut rocks up out of the glass with notes of honey-drizzled peaches, lime cordial and orange oil plus wafts of lanolin, pie crust and crushed rocks. The palate packs a wallop with intense flavor layers and a gorgeous texture, finishing with fantastic freshness.

Grand nez d’abricot et de pêche jaune, une touche d’ananas montrant la nature de ce botrytis lent du millésime, un peu moins immédiatement génial à sa naissance que 2015.

The 2016 De Suduiraut has a complex bouquet with rich and honeyed fruit, superb mineral tension and wonderful detail. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, great tension and a lovely touch of spice towards the very persistent finish. What a great Suduiraut in the making here, so full of character and complexity, and yet you still feel as if it has something up its sleeve.

Botrytis arrived late in 2016, so the Suduiraut was made from just the last two picks at the estate. Pineapple, passion fruit, mint, chamomile and exotic floral notes are beautifully delineated. Plush, deep and inviting to the core, the 2016 is also quite open and expressive today, all of which suggests it will drink well with minimal cellaring.

(94 Semillon, 6 Sauvignon Blanc) | 50% new oak Very floral and very honeyed, this is a beautiful Suduiraut. A lot of wine was made in 2016 but less than a quarter of the 19000 bottles because the Grand Vin thanks to a rigorous selection. They harvested dried grapes until the end of October when botrytis arrived and stayed all of the way into November. The greatest botrytis affected only the last two ‘tries’ (of four) and this is the fruit which was used for the Grand Vin. I have a feeling that this will be a very long-loved Suduiraut such is the piercing acidity and amazing length. 19++

Not that much nose but big and ambitious with broad richness and a savoury finish. Waxy and round. Yet again, this shows real superiority. So long! Lots of botrytis and round and spicy. Really luscious and gorgeous and doesn’t include any of the dried-fruit wine. Spicy. 13.8% Drink 2024-204418+

This has so much botrytis/spice character. Dried-mushroom powder as well. Full yet round and gorgeous. Exuberant softness. Very sweet and complex. Complete Sauternes.
