95-96 JS / 94-96 VM / 94-96 JD / 93-95 WI

Real density to this old-vine white with dried-apple, peach and stone character. It’s full and dense but always vivid. I love the phenolics here. Fantastic dry white. From 40- to 60-year-old vines. 57% semillon and 43% sauvignon blanc. - James Suckling

The 2023 Grand Vin Blanc Sec Vieilles Vignes is superb. Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers, sage, mint and dried flowers all run through this super-expressive, savory dry white. There's real phenolic intensity to the Vieilles Vignes—a rich, deep white for the dinner table. Pretty floral top notes and a kick of tropical fruit brighten the finish. -- Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

The 2023 Château Suduiraut Vieilles Vignes is gorgeous, with a fresh, vibrant, yet textured profile that will shine right out of the gate. Minty herbs, honeyed citrus, crushed stone, and lime all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied, concentrated, and incredibly lively and juicy on the palate. - Jeb Dunnuck

The 2023 Grand Vin Blanc Sec de Suduiraut offers up intense notes of fresh grapefruit and green mango leading to an undercurrent of lime blossom, fresh hay, and paraffin wax with a waft of clover honey. The medium-bodied palate has an alluring satiny texture, with a refreshing, well-balanced backbone of freshness and intense citrus and tropical flavors, finishing long and minerally. The blend is 57% Semillon and 43% Sauvignon Blanc, with pH 3.40. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independent
