About This Wine
Suduiraut 2009 comes from a Premier Cru Classé estate in Preignac whose vines adjoin those of Yquem. The 2009 is rich and heady but kept lively by firm acidity.
The 2009 is 93% Sémillon and 7% Sauvignon Blanc, picked in three passes through the vines at a yield of around 19 hectolitres per hectare.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Honeycomb, quince paste and pear, with chamomile, yellow flowers and a note of clarified butter.
- Palate: Satiny and dense, with dried pineapple, apricot and exotic spice carried on a sharp line of acidity.
- Finish: Composed and lingering, with clementine, honey and a faint salty edge.
Serving & Food
Serve at 10 to 11°C in a tulip-shaped glass. Foie gras terrine, a wedge of Stilton or poached pears with almond cream all suit it.
