Le G de Chateau Guiraud 2018

Guiraud

Case Format: 1x75cl

Château Guiraud is a 85 hectare wine estate located in Sauternes, Bordeaux. where vineyards are planted with Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc, with Semillon making up the majority of the botrytized wine. Only grapes that have been affected by noble rot are picked by hand, fermented in new oak barrels. After Château Guiraud reaches the desired level of sweetness, it is aged in barrel for at least 24 months before it is released.
The château also makes a second wine, Petit Guiraud, from younger vines. There is also a dry Bordeaux Blanc called Le G de Château Guiraud, although unlike the rest of the portfolio, it is Sauvignon Blanc-dominant.

Very rich and round. Big and smoky and rather irresistible because so evolved and ready! It’s so spicy it tastes almost like Sauvignon Gris… Difficult to spit – but perhaps not the most refreshing dry white. Seems off dry.

Tina Gellie

Guiraud is synonymous with Sauternes, but this dry white shows the same class and complexity as you find in its famous sweet wines. Its an equal blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon, packed with spiky gooseberries and nettles, rich tropical tones and creamy herbal and hay notes. Long and textural with lifted grapefruit acidity.
