| The '01 Suduiraut is probably my WOTY. An unforgettable experience.
Cheers,

| I think I will open a 375ml of this for tonight.....would a decant be good or just leave in bottle? | | | |

| I opened and poured myself a little taster. If this can be better with air, it will bring tears to my eyes. I will pour the rest in a large Riedel glass for a decant. | | | |

| I had a full glass tonight with foie, it is that good. Jeez, I need 375s. I've never been a big Suduiraut fan, this changes everything. | | | |

| I popped a 375 of this on 12/19 & it was stunning. I prefer the Rieussec, but boy it's a horse race. As an added bonus, I was in Harrisonburg, VA over Chirstmas & scored two 750 ml bottles of Suduiraut for $40 each. They were just sitting there...  | | | |

Dave,
Where did you get the wine. I am still waiting for futures (375) from T & V. | | | |

Bob, they are not coming in. They gave me 750ml's in place of the 375ml's I had ordered on futures. I was a little upset as I would have rather had the 375ml. | | | |

Well, Seek and Bob, depending on how upset you really are, I'd be happy to take some of your excess 750s. | | | |

I would love to trade some! I'm in San Jose ... how about 2 of my 750's? Feel free to drop me an email; I could bring a few friends, and we could meet and have dinner somewhere nice ... maybe crack open one of those bottles :-)
Thanks,
Peter

| Popped one of these last night. Have to agree with all that's been said here - an incredibly well balanced and delicious wine. A complete pleasure to drink now, but in the years to come....I can only imagine! | | | |

| Had a glass of this and agree with everyone's thoughts. What I loved the most about this wine was the intensity and purity of the flavors, along with a long, yet almost weightless finish. Superb! 96+ points. | | | |
