Tasting Notes:
Pale lemon-gold in colour, the 2019 Guiraud springs from the glass with vivacious scents of lemon marmalade, orange blossoms, pink grapefruit and fresh pineapple with hints of candied ginger and musk perfume plus a waft of beeswax. The palate delivers concentrated citrus and dried pineapple flavours with apricot and spicy sparks, lifted by a lively line of freshness, finishing satisfyingly sweet and perfumed.
