Winery Notes:

"The 2023 "G" de Chateau Guiraud had already been bottled. It offers light Granny Smith apple and light petrichor scents on the nose. The palate is well balanced with good concentration and lightly spiced, leading to a cohesive and fairly persistent finish." (VM)

As early as 1766 Château Guiraud, breaking with cultural traditions, proclaiming its political difference, and on a constant quest for prestige, was already juggling between anticonformism and innovation. The Guiraud family of merchants, founders of the modern estate, built up an atmosphere of mystery around Château Guiraud. The Protestant chapel was a proclamation of the family’s religious beliefs and their faith at a time when all around them looked towards Rome. Since that time the property has borne the name Chateau Guiraud and proudly displays a black label that sacralizes the family's Protestant and Republican values. This black label is one of the oldest in the Bordeaux region and has remained unchanged since its creation. Within three generations the property was to become a prestigious Grand Cru, being consecrated Premier Grand Cru Classé in 1855 in the classification ordered by the Emperor Napoleon III.

Château is in many ways a forerunner and employs environment-friendly processes that are 100% natural. We have planted hedges made up of different plant species, the soil between the rows of our vines are naturally grassed over, nesting sites for birds are protected, and special nesting "hives" have been installed to encourage the presence of pollinating insects. All this illustrates our desire to preserve the local biodiversity and promote ecological methods.

Winemaker Notes

G of Chateau Guiraud is a dry white wine of Bordeaux Appellation, made from grapes harvested at maturity. It matures for around 7 months in second wine barrels, already used for Château Guiraud. The blend of 50% Sauvignon and 50% Semillon gives it its uniqueness, while its potential always appeals to the palate of amateurs and informed tasters.
