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.
