Only a couple of sweet wines really stood out from our tastings in 2008 and Ch.
Guiraud was one of them. Lovely, orange botrytis notes abound on a silky,
mouthcoating, honeyed palate. Lighter in style than some Sauternes powerhouses,
this has a delicate, fresh apricot fruit style which adds delightful finesse
and charm. It is however the delightfully refreshing acidity that really made
it shine. Quite delicious, this promises enjoyment over many years to come.

Broad, intense spiced citrus. Bright and racy and pure. Well balanced and
moderate length. Dense and viscous and tangy.
