Château Guiraud Sauternes 1855 1er Cru 2020
Classical and consistent in its delivery, this is a beautifully balanced Guiraud with white flowers, peach, apricot pits, stone fruits, lime zest. Lifted yet luscious. Sandrine Garbay, long-time cellar master at Yquem, joined Guiraud in early 2022 but this vintage was made under Luc Planty. The finish comes in with white pepper spice, fennel, white pear and passion fruit. 2020 is the 10th vintage to be certified as organic. A yield of 8.3hl/ha, fermented and aged in 90% new oak.
