G de Guiraud Organic 2019

Bordeaux AOC

Château Guiraud is best known for its remarkably luscious 1er Grand Cru Classé Sauternes, but it also makes this knockout dry white. Organic Sémillon and Sauvignon, lees stirred and barrel aged to lend creamy spice layers to the zipped lemon fruit.

Château Guiraud is a grand Sauternes estate of impeccable quality, ideally situated next door to Château Yquem. While its luscious sweet wine is fabulous, the team there is also master at this outstanding dry white, applying the same dedicated winemaking standards to both. Using purely organic, very low yield, estate grown Sémillon and Sauvignon grapes, the wine is fermented and regularly lees stirred in barrel for added richness and creamy texture. It ages there for at least six months, which all adds up to layer upon layer of complex, rich flavour. Serve this white cellar cool like a great white Burgundy to enjoy all its richness. It will make a fine partner to sauced white meat or fish dishes. "Really excellent" declared Suckling.

"Dense, waxy white with sliced dried-apple and lemon character, white peaches. Really excellent" James Suckling
