A deep golden yellow in colour, Château Suduiraut 2010 shows a first sign of maturity with some amber glints. The nose presents woody, acacia honey, roast apricot and candied notes. On aerating, notes of plum, saffron, almond and green Chartreuse emerge. The richness of the vintage gives the palate opulence, with flavours of plum, wood and candied fruit. The smooth finish ends with notes of cocoa bean, ginger and vanilla, which energise this opulence. This is a powerful wine - yet without heaviness - which still needs a little more time to fully open up. This vintage has great potential, and with the 2009 it will form a duo as promising as 1989-1990.
