France, Bordeaux
R320
‘Richer in mouthfeel than some vintages of G de Guiraud, this has a lovely tang of lime juice and lemongrass and silky texture - enjoyable and with a twist on the finish.’ – Jane Anson, Decanter, 92/100
‘Lots of sliced-lime and apricot character with a medium body and a layered finish. Creamy and attractive. From organically grown grapes. Drink now.’ – James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, 91/100
‘Floral, honeycomb and lanolin on the nose and just a little sweet and light on the finish. Not that intense.’ – Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 16/20
