Chateau Suiduiraut Sauternes (375 ml), 1983

Even from a 375 ml bottle, this 1983 Suiduiraut Sauternes still offers magnificent smells and flavors.

Deep amber color but not as dark as the 1983 Doisy Daene I opened and reported on last week. Richer and sweeter than the Doisy Daene.One person at the table immediately mentioned Seville orange marmalade--a perfect descriptor for both the flavors and texture. Also dried and fresh apricots, honey and butterscotch. Viscous and mouthfeeling, Pleasure clinging to the inside of your mouth. Sweet but with the tangy bitterness of marmalade. Beautiful.
