2019 Chateau Guiraud 'Le G de Chateau Guiraud' Blanc Sec

Winemaker Notes:  G of Château Guiraud is a dry white wine made from grapes harvested at full maturity. It is aged for approximately 7 months in the oak barrels that produced the previous year's Grand Cru. It reveals richness of expression and an assertive personality. The blend of 50% sauvignon and 50% semillon makes it a remarkable wine whose potential will challenge the palate of wine-lovers and confirmed wine-tasters alike.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Jeb Dunnuck - "Pretty notes of quince, honeyed orange, white flowers, and apricot-like notes all emerge from the 2019 Château Guiraud, which is medium to full-bodied and has a terrific sense of purity, a focused, elegant texture, and a great finish. Developing more and more complexity with time in the glass, it delivers an incredibly precise, elegant texture that keeps you coming back."


James Suckling - "This is a dense, waxy white with sliced dried-apple and lemon character, as well as stone and white peaches. It’s full-bodied, flavorful and rich. I like the spicy finish at the end from the semillon. Really excellent. From organically grown grapes."


Wine Spectator - "Very pure, with chiseled edges of lemon pith and peel flanking a core of yellow apple, shortbread, acacia and verbena notes. The long finish pulls it all together nicely. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now."
