G de Guiraud Bordeaux Blanc 2017 75cl

As the market for the sweet wines of Sauternes declines, many producers are turning to dry white wines and with some extremely impressive results. This dry wine from Chateau Guiraud, one of the grandest properties in the region, is made from equal parts semillon and sauvignon grapes a proportion of which is fermented in old Sauternes casks. So though this is a bone dry wine, you're getting some of the heady exotic fruit character of a sweet wine. At five years old, this is drinking beautifully now and would be a great accompaniment to richer fish dishes.
