"Crafted from a meticulous blend of 65% Sémillon and 35% Sauvignon Blanc, Château Guiraud Premier Cru embodies purity and balance. It exudes floral freshness, exotic nuances, and lusciously sweet flavors on a dense, well-rounded palate—a delicately aromatic masterpiece.
Château Guiraud’s unique terroir, where 80% sandy gravels and 20% clay gravels converge, delivers a stunning Premier Grand Cru Classé that reflects the essence of its surroundings. With subsoils of translucent sand, pure gravels, red clay, and limestone marls, the vineyards flourish atop fossilized oyster beds. It is within this rich tapestry of soil and climate that the grapes thrive, imparting a distinct character to each bottle of Château Guiraud.
Sauternes wines are made primarily from Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc grapes that have been naturally affected by noble rot, Botrytis fungus. In this case, it’s a desirable fungus, allowing the perfect growing conditions for sweet wine. The fungus causes small holes in the skin of the grapes, and the grapes dehydrate on the vine, concentrating the sugar in the grapes, which look like raisins at harvest. The result is a wine with deep and complex flavors and aromas."
Alc 13.5%
