Wine Spectator  
Shows dried pineapple, honey, pear, caramel and piecrust aromas. Full-bodied and very sweet, with spice, coconut, tropical fruit and apple tart flavors. Long and dense, yet lively. Best after 2013. 6,500 cases made. —James Suckling, 97 points
Wine Enthusiast  
90-92 Barrel sample. This is a hugely ripe wine dominated by concentrated, ripe fruits and flavors of pure sweet oranges. A powerful wine, surprising because of its weight in a year that seems more about freshness, but still good. —Roger Voss, 98 points
Wine Advocate  

Tasted blind at the 10-Year On Tasting in Sauternes. The 2005 Château Suduiraut seemed a little out of sorts at first, although it comes together with honey, barley sugar, orange blossom and mineral scents that become more delineated as its aerates. The palate is very intense on the entry. There is a beautiful line of acidity that cuts through the viscous fruit, though the finish does not quite exude the precision of a top vintage, but still delivers that sense of class one expects from this address.

Château Suduiraut Tasting Notes  
The wines of Chateau Suduiraut are elegant, sweet and full-bodied with a remarkable life-expectancy. They are a beautiful gold color with amber tints when aged. They have harmony, power, and finesse; it is often said that a great Suduiraut is the essence of Sauternes.
