Weinwisser: "100 % Sémillon, Restzucker 130 g/l, 11.5 hl/ha. Betörendes reifes Bouquet, frisch gekochtes Birnenmark, getrocknete Aprikosen, Bienenwachs und Akazienhonig. Am satten Gaumen mit öliger Textur, hochreif, rollt satt über die Zunge, tiefgründiger Körper mit pfeffrigem Extrakt. Im konzentrierten Finale englische Frühstücksmarmelade, eingelegte Orangen und edle Bitternote. Erinnert Pierre Montégut aufgrund der stützenden Mineralität an 2007."

Vinum: "Feinduftig, Ananas, Zitrusfrüchte, Salzzitrone, geröstete Nüsse, Mandelblüten, Feigen; dichter Gaumen, cremige Textur, sehr schöne Balance aus Süsse und Säure, die Frucht ist knackig, die Balance der Elemente stimmt, hervorragende Länge, grosse Länge, Zitrusfrüchte und Papaya im Rückaroma. Ein hervorragender Suduiraut, der in jeder Phase seines Lebens Spass machen wird."

Jeb Dunnuck: "Exotic citrus, orange blossom, honeyed mint, and floral notes all shine in the 2024 Château Suduiraut, a rocking gem of a Sauternes that's medium-bodied, has a concentrated, layered, rich mouthfeel, beautiful acidity, and a great finish. It's loaded with classic Sauternes magic."

Falstaff: "Leuchtendes Gelbgold, silberfarbene Reflexe. Einladende gelbe Tropenfrucht, sehr feine Botrytiswürze, reife Mango, ein Hauch von Marillenkonfit, etwas Vanille, ein Hauch von Edelholz, einladendes Bukett. Saftig, elegant, sehr klarer Fruchtausdruck, kräftig im Abgang, etwas Honig und Grapefruit, mineralisch, lange, sicheres Reifepotenzial."

Lisa Perrotti-Brown: "Erupts from the glass with powerful notes of lemon marmalade, lime cordial, and candied ginger, giving way to suggestions of candied orange peel, allspice, and beeswax. The rich, seductive, full-bodied palate delivers beautiful harmony with a racy backbone and creamy texture, finishing long and spicy."

The Wine Cellar Insider: "White peaches, pineapples, vanilla, lemon curd, honey, saffron, apricots, and candied tangerines get the wine going. Sweet, intense, opulent, and most importantly, vibrant, this sweet treat is going to be fabulous to enjoy young. But, if you are able to keeps your hands off it, the wine can age for decades. The wine was made from 100% Semillon. Drink from 2028-2060."

James Suckling: "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."

Jane Anson: "This really is charming, full of marmalade and orange zest, saffron and lime, bitter finish in the best way, gives focus and rises up through the palate. 4.1 TA. 3.83 pH. 130 g/l. 50% new oak. Four passes through the vineyard through to 3rd week of October, with 2nd and 3rd being the heart. Pierre Montegut technical director across both Suduiraut and Pichon Baron. 11.3hl/h yield. Lovely, softly spoken, not the intensity of 2022, but just thoroughly appealing. Eric Boissenot consultant, as at Pichon and at Noval in Portugal."

Decanter: "Delicate aromatics, really floral and lifted, clean and crystalline, pure and focused, not so overly sweet, but some peach density with a touch of orange blossom and marmalade. Unctuous and filling but in a great way, not thick, but round and punchy. Focussed on delicate flavours and botrytis, orange peel and apricot, not exotic, but cool and fresh and so detailed. This is so easy to drink and enjoy with acidity and lift. Structure is there but there is an ease to this. Very enjoyable. Ageing 50% in new barrels and 50% from barrels of one vintage, for 16 to 20 months, according to the evolution of the wine. Represents 77% of production. 130g/L residual sugar. 3.83pH."
