    Producer

    The Château Suduiraut vineyard stretches across well-exposed slopes, where the clay-siliceous soil promotes optimal drainage and harmonious ripening of the grapes. The proximity of the Ciron River creates an ideal microclimate, conducive to the development of noble rot, essential for the production of great Sauternes. The vines, cultivated with respect for the environment, are meticulously tended to guarantee the quality of the grapes. Each vine is a testament to winemaking traditions, nurturing the soul of this exceptional terroir.

    Owner and history

    The team's commitment to quality and authenticity is reflected in every bottle. They are dedicated to respecting the environment, adopting sustainable farming methods that preserve the vineyard's biodiversity. This sustainable and terroir-conscious approach ensures the estate's longevity and the excellence of its wines, while honoring the legacy of previous generations.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Château Suduiraut is a meticulous art. The hand-harvested grapes are carefully sorted to retain only the finest. After gentle pressing, the must ferments in vats, followed by aging in oak barrels, approximately 30% of which are new. This process allows the wine to develop its aromatic complexity while subtly integrating the oak notes. Aging lasts several months, during which the wine is regularly racked to ensure a silky texture. Each step is carried out with passion, aiming to reveal the best of each vintage.
