"Strong golden yellow, silver reflections. Floral nuances of apricot and yellow peach, inviting honey touch. Powerful, white stone fruit, fresh structure, clear sweetness on the finish, fine wood nuances on the aftertaste, has polish and definite ageing potential. - Peter Moser"

"Château Guiraud has always carried itself with gentleness. In 2024, it feels even more composed and unwavering. Its texture is soft and caressing, its sweetness concentrated, yet the balance between the two is drawn with exquisite precision. Richness floats above weight, sweetness walks hand in hand with restraint. The nose is as pure and luminous as the wine itself, unfolding with the tender clarity of honey, dried apricot, and mandarin peel. Just as the wine begins to settle, a flicker of Sichuan pepper and the subtle bitterness of almond rise at the close, adding a fine-boned structure and contemplative depth. The topaz-gold wine shimmers with warm, clear light, and its high acidity lifts it effortlessly to a brighter, more exhilarating dimension. - Alexandre Ma"

"Dark burnt orange gold, spiralling white flower aromatics, this is great quality, thoroughly enjoyable, subtle spiced cumin and tumeric, sweetly succulent apricot and nectarine juice without being heavy. 12.6 hl/ha yield, Sandrine Garbay estate director. - Jane Anson"
