Product Overview

Winery's Notes
"Gateway to Château Guiraud, G de Château Guiraud is a dry white wine made from grapes harvested at their optimum maturity on a dedicated plot selection. It is aged for 6 months on lees, half in stainless steel vats and half in barrels previously used for one wine, for the classified 1st Growth in 1855. The blend of 53% Sauvignon and 47% Sémillon, as well as a malolactic fermentation carried out on a few batches, gives it its uniqueness. Fresh and very aromatically expressive at the same time, G de Château GUIRAUD can be appreciated from its youngest age, adapting itself very easily to any moment and to any kind of cuisine.

Pale yellow colour, with great brightness. On the nose, passion fruit and pink grapefruit, paired with a minty freshness and a pleasant salivating savouriness. On the palate, we find the freshness of the ripe Sauvignon, then very quickly the evolution towards the roundness and the slightly brioche notes of the Semillon bringing a lot of flesh to this lovely and very accessible vintage of G de Château Guiraud."

Varietal Composition: 53% Sauvignon Blanc, 47% Sémillon

90 Points, "Smart Buys" - Wine Spectator
"Bright and juicy, with peach, yellow plum and jasmine notes mixed together, plus a subtle quinine thread that curls through the finish. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon. Drink now through 2026. 14,150 cases made." -JM, 4/30/24

(88-90) Points - Vinous
"The 2022 "G" de Château Guiraud offers wild peach and honeysuckle scents on what feels like a discrete nose that unfurls in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a slightly honeyed opening, a little richer than others, but maybe without the same tension and complexity on the finish. But I do appreciate this G for its texture more than anything." -NM, Apr/2023
