Suduiraut is a top name in Sauternes, classified as a first growth. The half-bottle format makes this 100% Semillon dessert wine an affordable option for the festive season and beyond – the sweetness (149g/L residual sugar) balanced by great acidity. Gorgeous aromas and flavours of orange blossom, apricot stone fruit and honey, with a lemon citrus lift. The five years of bottle age adds complexity and makes it even better value.
