Varietal

Semillon

Semillon was, at one point not so long ago, widely believed to be one of the most grown grape varietals in the world. Whilst today the numbers of Semillon grapes has dropped considerably, it remains a widely planted grape with vineyards all over Europe and the New World dedicated to making the most of this special and flavorful varietal. The grapes are recognizable by their golden color, and the fact that they can take on a pinkish hue in particularly warm climates. The wines the Semillon grape produces are notably varied, and are often very crisp and dry, or sweet and soft, full of a wide range of flavors Commonly, dry Semillon wines are particularly citrus in flavor, with a delicate and summery bouquet. The vine is hardy and vigorous, and notable for being easy to grow and produce high yields from.

Appellation

Sauternes

Sauternes, a revered appellation within Bordeaux, France, is celebrated for producing the world's finest sweet wines. What makes Sauternes unique is its climatic conditions, ideal for the development of Botrytis cinerea, or noble rot. This benevolent fungus shrivels the grapes, concentrating sugars and flavors, resulting in lusciously sweet and complex wines. Predominantly crafted from Sémillon, with Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle playing supporting roles, Sauternes wines exhibit opulent flavors of honey, apricot, and tropical fruits. The region's microclimates, terroir variations, and meticulous vineyard management contribute to the diversity of styles within the appellation. Châteaux like d'Yquem epitomize Sauternes' excellence, and the wines often require patience, aging gracefully for decades. The intricate dance of sweetness, acidity, and botrytis characterizes Sauternes, offering a unique tasting experience and showcasing the artistry of Bordeaux winemaking. Exploring Sauternes provides wine enthusiasts with a profound understanding of the magic that noble rot imparts to create these extraordinary dessert wines.

James Suckling

96-97 Lots of depth, with minerals, cream, kiwis and nectarines. Quite pure and slightly flinty at this stage. Pretty concentrated, with a medium to full body and a textured, cohesive center palate. Round and intense, with lovely freshness and a long, chalky finish.

VM 96pts

Vinous Media

94-96 The 2024 Grand Vin Blanc Sec Pur Sémillon is seriously impressive. Lemon confit, apricot, marzipan, white flowers, spice, white pepper and light tropical overtones stain the palate. The 2024 is quite closed today. It should be fabulous in another few years' time. For the first time, about 25% of the wine was aged in Wineglobe.

Jeb Dunnuck

Another sensational white, the 2024 Château Suduiraut Pur Sémillon reveals ripe citrus, crushed lime, mint, and chalky minerality on the nose, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with a pure, graceful, focused mouthfeel, solid mid-palate depth, and integrated acidity. It plays in the fresher style of the vintage yet brings depth and length. Drink this beauty over the coming two decades. Drink 2026-2045.

The Wine Independent

94-96 Bursts with expressive scents of lemon tart, fresh pineapple, and honeysuckle, plus nuances of orange blossoms and chalk dust. The light to medium-bodied palate is bone dry and racy with delicate citrus and mineral layers and beautifully knit acidity, finishing long and chalky.

WA 94pts

Wine Advocate

92-94 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.

WS 94pts

Wine Spectator

Bursts forth with a yuzu note out front, followed quickly by white peach, Meyer lemon and Jonagold apple. Offsetting its flourish of fruit are a steely fleur de sel thread and a subtle lemon pith accent that add a tensile strength through the finish, letting the fruit echo clearly and steadily. Best from 2027 through 2033. Tasted twice, with consistent notes.

DC 94pts

Decanter

Some soft wet wool aspects, creamy vanilla and lemon skin. Some salty, mineral notes on the nose, smells fresh. A combination of tropical pineapple and mango with bitter lemon and cream. Gentle and calm but this is so enjoyable, you get the richness as well as a lovely mineral bite. Forward and focussed, layered and nuanced. Really great, it’s soft and quiet, not a thick wine, but so finessed. Ageing 27% in new barrels, 50% from barrels of one vintage and 23% in wineglobe for nine months. Represents 3% of the production of dry wines. 3.25pH.
