Château Guiraud, traditionally known for its sweet First Growth (Premier Grand Cru Classé) Sauternes, has been investing in making a biodynamic dry white wine.  One has to taste this true Bordeaux dry white to realize the value per price that is hardly matched by its New World competition.

Tasting Notes

"The 2015 G de Château Guiraud offers nectarine, pithy fruit on the nose that needs just a little more delineation. The palate is crisp and fresh with plenty of citrus fruit, dried pineapple and green apples on the energetic finish. Give this a year once in bottle and you'll have a great G de Guiraud." - Neal Martin, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (4/27/2016, Issue 224), Ratings: 89-91, Drink: 2017-2025
