2015 G de Guiraud, Bordeaux Blanc Sec

2015 G de Guiraud, Bordeaux Blanc Sec

This Lay & Wheeler favourite is a bit rounder in 2015, but retains the acidity that makes it such a refreshing summer drink. Don't overlook its ability to age. In a couple of years it should be even better, developing spicy, savoury notes and added complexity. If you can keep your hands off it that long, that is.

Tasting notes

The 2015 G de Château Guiraud offers nectarine, pithy fruit on the nose that needs just a little more delineation. The palate is crisp and fresh with plenty of citrus fruit, dried pineapple and green apples on the energetic finish. Give this a year once in bottle and you'll have a great G de Guiraud.

A white that makes you want to drink it with sliced apple, pear and light lilac aromas and flavors. Medium to full body, crisp finish. Delicious
