Other Reviews...
The Château Guiraud 2014 has a perfumed bouquet with clear honey, beeswax and honeysuckle aromas that are well defined. The palate is fresh and taut on the entry: good tension and focus here, very harmonious with a gently build in the mouth towards a satisfying marmalade and quince-driven finish. This is a finely crafted Guiraud that will be a class act. Drink 2018 - 2040.

Neal Martin - The Wine Advocate # 218 (Apr 2015)

A juicy, engaging core of apricot, nectarine and green fig is backed by ginger and spiced apple accents. Orange zest notes enliven the finish even more. Shows solid length, power and precision.

J.M. - Wine Spectator

Tropical and orchard fruit are lifted by spicy botrytis notes, crystallised ginger and lemon verbena. Balanced and refined, yet bigger than usual but remarkably fresh thanks to vibrant acidity.

Decanter

There's a pretty core of dried fruit and botrytis with dried apricots. Full body. Tight now.
