2004 Chateau Guiraud Premier Cru 0,375 Liter

The Château Guiraud Premier Cru 2004, in a 0.375L bottle, is a refined Sauternes crafted from botrytized Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc. This 2004 vintage displays a deep golden hue and an opulent nose of honey, dried apricot, candied orange, and exotic spices, with hints of caramel and minerality. On the palate, it is rich and viscous, with concentrated sweetness balanced by vibrant acidity, delivering flavors of mango, pineapple, and botrytis-driven complexity. The finish is long and harmonious, with a chalky mineral backbone. Biodynamically produced, this wine showcases Guiraud’s mastery of sweet winemaking. Perfect with fruit tarts, foie gras, or blue cheeses, it offers a decadent experience. With two decades of aging, it is at its peak but can evolve further, making it a collector’s treasure.
