Château Suduiraut – Vieilles Vignes 2020 – Bordeaux

The nose is elegant, delicate, precise and reveals a nice definition, a certain power, some complexity as well as a floral side, volume and a fine unctuousness. There are notes of lychee, elderflower and, more slightly, crushed nectarine/nectarine, combined with hints of sweet/ripe citrus fruit, as well as fine hints of fresh lilac, a discreet touch of vanilla and minerality. The palate is fresh, mineral, balanced, fruity and offers a certain juiciness, good definition and minerality. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of pulpy/fresh nectarine, quenette/litchi and, more slightly, crushed white berries, combined with hints of vanilla and fine points of salinity and fresh almond. Good length.
