A gold-colored wine. The palate has intense freshness as well as ripe apricot and orange zest flavors. The acidity cuts through the intense richness leaving a wine that needs time to fully integrate and then many more years to mature.

Cloudy golden color with great viscosity. This is a real beauty as well. Nice aromas of peach ripe golden apple marshmallow and honey. The mid-palate is fat and rich with an almost oily character. Has some spice towards the end as well (clove mostly) This 2007 Sauternes has a lot going on and is certainly one of the stars this vintage has to offer.

Tasted as part of a vertical held at the chateau. Like one or two other 2007s, the aromatics on the Guiraud ’07 are rather subdued at the moment and they demand coaxing to offer honey, lemon curd and orange blossom. The palate is well-balanced with finer tannins than the 2006. Here, the quality of the vintage finally shows through with impressive precision and focus, building toward the fresh, feminine apricot and dried peach finish that lingers long in the mouth. This is an outstanding Guiraud, but it will reward those with patience. Drink 2017-2035. Tasted April 2013. - Neal Martin

A beautiful nose filled with flowers and spicy, honey coated orange, apricot, peach and pineapple gets you excited. This rich, concentrated wine ends with a long sensation of warm nuts, honey and sweet, ripe, tropical fruit.

The 2007 Guiraud is medium gold in color. It has a nose of fresh hay, tobacco, and dried apple slices with wafts of toasted almonds and dusty soil. The palate delivers rich, mature, nutty and savory fruit with a lively line and great length. The blend is 65% Semillon and 35% Sauvignon Blanc.

The 2007 Guiraud has a well-defined bouquet with marmalade, orange blossom and light waxy aromas, opening nicely with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a viscous opening, fine acidity, taut and fresh with a tang of marmalade on the finish. It just lacks a bit of persistence, but it should continue to give pleasure for several years. Tasted at the 2007 horizontal in Sauternes. -- Neal Martin
