Château GuiraudSauternes 2009 375mL
About this product
Château Guiraud is a very famous old property within the region of Sauternes and has been rejuvenated over the past 20 years with the introduction of the Narby family from Canada. The rich and voluptuous wines are now matured in 60% new oak and the results are for all to see with wines of great complexity, harmony and elegance. A near perfect vintage, like the 2009, has produced a wine that is a little different to most in the region. Extremely complex on both the nose and palate with unique flavours of almond and near-ripe figs complementing the overwhelming powerful body.

Vintage 2009
96 points erobertparker.com
The 2009 Guiraud has a complex, precocious bouquet with honeysuckle and jasmine notes, hints of dried honey and white peach. It is tightly wound but very precise. The palate is pure and tense in the mouth – great precision here once again with superbly integrated oak and a lovely, seductive, very viscous botrytis-laden finish. In many ways the 2009 represents the wine that every vintage since 1983 would love to be. Drink 2018-2040+
