G de Guiraud 2021 is a sophisticated dry white wine that impresses with its freshness and finesse. The blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon gives the wine a delicate light golden colour and an aromatic profile full of fresh citrus notes, green apple and hints of white flowers. On the palate, the wine is light, fresh and lively, with balanced acidity and a fine texture that delivers an elegant mineral finish. The 2021 vintage was cooler and more challenging, which was reflected in the wine's more delicate and elegant style, ideal for pairing with lighter foods such as salads, grilled fish or fine cheeses.

Château Guiraud
Château Guiraud is located in the Sauternes appellation. The wine from Château was classified as Premier Cru in the Bordeaux classification of 1855. Today, this winery is the only Premier Cru Classé certified as an organic winery.
The vineyard covers approximately 85 hectares and is planted with the Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc varieties. The soil is sandy-gravelly and clayey, which, due to its moisture-retaining properties, contributes to the spread of Botrytis cinerea (noble rot).
