A creamy, fruity Sauternes with apple and pear-skin aromas and flavors, as well as hints of honey. Medium-bodied, fresh and bright with a clean finish. Second wine of Château Guiraud. JAMES SUCKLING
Lovey insistency of flavour here. It isn't built on unctuousness, instead it's more fruit sweetness with a light touch of botrytis adding a little weight, some complexing characters like burnt mandarin peel, honey, lime marmalade. It's an upbeat rendition that has plenty of juicy, primary, buoyant fruit that is outrageously appealing. Such freshness and an incisive line of citrusy acidity which holds everything upright and keeps that uber freshness fore and centre. Really lovely and a lot better than the price tag suggests. It's not meant to be a long lived Sauternes but it's a captivating drink now and will be over the medium term too. ROSCOE
