This is a dry white made by famed Sauternes producer Chateau Giraud. A really nice change of pace (and a heck of a lot less expensive) from good old Sancerre.

A dry white wine made from a blend of equal parts of sauvignon and sémillon and aged on lees for 6 months, half in stainless steel vats and the other half in barrels used for the château’s Premier Cru dessert wine, G de Guiraud is a truly exciting wine.
The 2017 Guiraud opens with subtle notions of crushed rocks, wild fungi and fragrant earth leading to a profound core of orange marmalade, crystalized lemon peel, dried pineapple and paraffin wax. The rich, opulent, wonderfully exotic palate delivers soft...
Very floral, the 2022 Château Haut-Batailley Verso has beautiful black raspberry and cassis-like notes as well as hints of spicy wood and violet, medium to full body, a rounded, layered mouthfeel, and a great finish.
From vines at the foot of the slope opposite Canon la Gaffelière comes the Vauthier family's 2019 Haut-Simard, a promising young wine that exhibits aromas of cherries, raspberries, violets, raw cocoa and sweet spices. Medium to full-bodied, lively and nic...
The Vieilles Vignes cuvee is 100% Tannat and is produced from 80 year old vines that have particularly low yields. The juice stays in contact with the must for 21 days during which period the juice is pumped over the cap twice a day obtaining great extraction. The wine is aged in new and one year old barrels for 13 months.
Coming from a cooler terroir of pure limestone soils, including 15% hillside parcels, the 2024 Château Laroque is based on 98% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc and is resting in 50% new oak. This beautifully hued effort offers vibrant notes of ripe blackberri...
