Tasting profile
A deeply golden Sauternes with a rich, concentrated nose of peach, caramelized citrus zest, raisin, honey and ripe pineapple, leaning into botrytis sweetness without tipping over thanks to a lively streak of acidity. Reviewers describe it as well-balanced and complex, with a long, persistent finish that pairs beautifully with fruit desserts and custard.

Summary
From Sauternes in France, Château Suduiraut Sauternes (Premier Grand Cru Classé) is a dessert wine.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against 14 other dessert wines from France, not against the corpus as a whole. The calibrated figure is built from 5,602 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 5,672 reviewers with two or more ratings feeds the raw-average track instead.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.

- Where Château Suduiraut Sauternes (Premier Grand Cru Classé) lands against every wine we rank.

- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 5,602.
