Château Suduiraut 2024: classic Sauternes with precision and elegance
The Château Suduiraut 2024 is a magnificent embodiment of this iconic Premier Cru Classé from Sauternes. In a year of extreme weather conditions, Suduiraut produced a wine that combines finesse, intensity, and balance. Made entirely from 100% Sémillon and hand-harvested in four strict tries, this wine displays the full potential of noble rot.
Climate and harvest: from rain to gold
After an extremely wet autumn and winter, the growing season started early. Spring brought cool temperatures and challenges with mildew and irregular flowering, but thanks to a dry, warm summer and windy weather in September , Botrytis cinerea was able to develop quickly and homogeneously.
The harvest for the sweet wine began on September 19 and ended on October 24 , with four separate tries:
First trial: September 19–25, 5 batches
Second trie: October 2–11, 9 batches
Third batch: October 14–17, 6 batches
Fourth trial: October 23–24
The yield was very low: 11.3 hl/ha , which resulted in maximum concentration.
Vinification and aging of the 2024 Suduiraut Sauternes
Every step was carried out with the utmost care:
Gentle pneumatic pressing (3 hours), followed by vertical pressing (50 min),
Cold settling at 10°C,
Alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts in 50% new French oak barrels for 2 to 3 weeks,
Fermentation was inhibited by cooling and light sulfitation.
The wine then ages for 16 to 20 months , partly in new barrels and partly in one-year-old barrels.
Suduiraut Sauternes Tasting Notes
The Château Suduiraut 2024 displays a bright golden yellow color. The nose offers aromas of candied citrus, tropical fruit, honey, blossom, and roasted almonds . On the palate, the wine is rich, silky, and layered, with a pronounced freshness ( 4.1 g/L acidity ) that is beautifully balanced with the 130 g/L residual sugar . The finish is long, pure, and intense.
Storage and food pairing
Perfect with foie gras, Roquefort, apricot crumble, or even spicy dishes with mango or coconut. This wine has great aging potential and can age for decades.

The 2024 Pur Sémillon Blanc Sec is exquisite, revealing a complex, delicate bouquet of pear, white flowers and anise, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and round palate with bright acids and a delicate phenolic mid-palate that segues into a long, saline and pure finish. This is one of the white wines of the vintage.

Château Suduiraut Sauternes 2024
The complete opposite of the 2022 vintage. Fresher and less unctuous, with more delicate fruit, but there is still plenty of botrytis. Spices, sweet pineapple, lemons, marmalade, wax, fresh mangoes and bitter herbs. Medium lusciousness, with a round, creamy finish. 130 grams of sugar.

From: Event Horizon: Bordeaux 2024 Primeur (May 2025)
The 2024 Suduiraut enjoyed an early development of botrytis in mid-September, so there is no passerillage. The second and third tries in mid-October formed the heart of the wine. It is very pure on the nose, less intense than the previous two vintages, offering wild honey, peach skin and light nectarine scents. The palate is well balanced with a fine thread of acidity. It is not as dense or unctuous as recent vintages, but there is wonderful tension with a pure and quite sensual finish. Excellent. 130g/l residual sugar.

From: 2024 Bordeaux En Primeur: The Razor’s Edge (Apr 2025)
The 2024 Suduiraut offers up a beguiling mix of passion fruit, mango, pineapple and tangerine oil. Even with 130 grams of residual sugar, the 2024 is not an especially opulent Sauternes. I especially admire its freshness. What a beautiful and expressive wine.

Château Suduiraut: Premier Cru Classé from the Heart of Sauternes
Château Suduiraut stands among the elite producers of Sauternes. Classified as a Premier Cru Classé in 1855, this estate has earned its reputation through centuries of excellence. With roots tracing back to the 16th century and vineyards adjacent to Château d’Yquem, Suduiraut is renowned for crafting refined sweet wines and, more recently, outstanding dry white cuvées from old vines.
A Unique Terroir in Preignac
Located in Preignac, in the southern part of Bordeaux, Château Suduiraut spans 91 hectares planted on a mosaic of gravelly sand and clay soils. The estate's proximity to the Ciron river ensures the morning mists and warm afternoons necessary for the development of Botrytis cinerea—the noble rot essential to the world’s greatest sweet wines.
Style: Luscious Sweet Wines, Vibrant Dry Whites
Suduiraut is famed for its 100% Sémillon-based Sauternes, distinguished by their clarity, length, and layered aromas of candied citrus, honey, flowers, and spice. The wines mature for 16 to 20 months in a combination of new and used French oak barrels, developing beautifully over decades.
In recent years, Suduiraut has also gained recognition for its dry white wines:
- Château Suduiraut Vieilles Vignes Blanc Sec – a Grand Vin with depth and aging potential.
- Pur Sémillon – a rare and pure expression of the grape.
- Lions de Suduiraut – fresh, vibrant, and highly food-friendly.
Today, 65% of Suduiraut’s production is dedicated to dry whites, reflecting its innovative and forward-thinking winemaking philosophy.
Innovation Under AXA Millésimes
Since 1992, Château Suduiraut has been part of AXA Millésimes, the prestigious group behind leading estates such as Pichon Baron, Petit Village, and Quinta do Noval. Under the leadership of Christian Seely and technical director Pierre Montégut, both vineyard management and vinification have reached new heights. Traditional techniques are enhanced with modern precision—from gentle pressing and native yeast fermentation to tailored bâtonnage and barrel aging.
