Owner's words
The 2024 vintage is characterized by great freshness and vibrant liveliness. The nose opens with notes of white peach, candied lemon, bitter orange zest, dried apricot, and black tea. The palate, with a measured concentration, is airy and tense, yet retains the hallmark qualities of the appellation: smoothness, roundness, complexity, and aromatic persistence. Château Guiraud 2024 is, like the wines of the château, a balanced, indulgent, refined wine with great finesse.
