A pretty white with sliced mango, apple and pear aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with a tight center palate and stone undertones. 57% semillon, 30% sauvignon blanc and 13% sauvignon gris.

Just bottled, the 2023 Lions de Suduiraut Blanc Sec is superb. It offers a bit more mid-palate creaminess than most years but also retains terrific freshness and energy. Lemon confit, tangerine peel, passion fruit, jasmine and crushed rocks all race across the palate. The 2023 has the most Sémillon ever here—an inspired choice, to be sure, yielding an especially versatile dry white. I would be thrilled to have a case at the house.

Mostly Semillon, the 2023 Lions De Suduiraut Blanc is based on 57% Semillon, 30% Sauvignon, and 13% Sauvignon Gris. It has a juicy, vibrant nose of crushed citrus, tart grapefruit, and minty, mineral-like nuances as well as medium-bodied richness and depth on the palate. It has the pretty, juicy, vibrant style of the vintage.
