  • Description

    The 1967 Château Suduiraut Sauternes is a distinguished example of a Premier Cru Classé from one of Bordeaux’s most celebrated sweet wine vintages. Crafted predominantly from botrytized Sémillon grapes, this wine exemplifies the estate’s commitment to producing elegant and age-worthy Sauternes.


    Upon pouring, the wine reveals a deep golden hue with copper reflections, indicative of its maturity. The nose offers a complex bouquet of honeyed citrus, apricot, and exotic spices, creating an alluring sensory experience. On the palate, it presents a rich and velvety texture, with flavors of candied orange peel, tropical fruits, and caramelized honey. The sweetness is beautifully balanced by a vibrant acidity, adding freshness and liveliness to the overall profile. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and depth.


    Notably, the 1967 vintage has been praised for its remarkable balance and freshness. Tasting notes highlight a well-balanced and vibrant palate, with a citric seam of acidity that remains present, contributing to its freshness and liveliness. Flavors of barley sugar, orange rind, and marmalade are noted, leading to a taut but long finish. This wine is considered one of the better 1967 Sauternes, improving with time in the glass and exuding great tension and freshness.

    Château Suduiraut is a renowned Bordeaux wine estate located in the Sauternes appellation within the Bordeaux region of France. The estate is particularly known for producing sweet white wines, and like other Sauternes producers, it utilizes the Sémillon, Sauvignon Blanc, and Muscadelle grape varieties, often affected by noble rot, to create rich and complex wines.
