Decanter(1979 Vintage) Rating: 0/5 - As reviewed by Decanter. Gold; smoky dried-apricot nose; soft, quite rich, velvety, not especially sweet but harmonious and quite concentrated; quite good length.
The ’97 Suduiraut is a golden colored wine that is slightly viscous. It has an aroma of apricots with a touch of vanilla. The wine is sweet, but not as sweet as other Sauternes I have tasted. The predominant flavor is apricots and honey with a moderate Botrytis flavor. The wine finishes slightly sweet, with fruit, however I found the flavor very subdued.
