1983 Chateau Suduiraut, Sauternes

These tasting notes are from a half bottle. Dark golden color. Aromas of apricots and wood on the nose. Rich flavors of apricots, carmel, and pears, moderate acid, and long apricot finish. This Sauternes is beginning to lose its sweetness, at least in this half bottle size, although it is aging very gracefully, with big complex fruit flavors. To my taste it seems much bigger and more appealing now then when it was younger. I had a full case of half bottles, but it is almost gone now. I appear to have one more half-bottle left. My rating 88.
