Tasted blind. Deep copper colour. Very sweet pear juice. Just a tad simple but correct, with a hint of cinnamon apple juice too. (JR)

Tasted blind at the 10-Year On Tasting in Sauternes. The 2005 Château Guiraud has a rich nose of dried honey, orange blossom and buttercup that is nicely defined but does not quite have the intensity of the best Sauternes 05s. The palate is fresh and lithe on the entry, smooth and honeyed both in taste and texture with a long orange zest, vanilla and almond finish that is sensual and persistent. It meliorates in the glass, forages more zest and vitality, so don’t be afraid to aerate/decant this for an hour or two.
Lively and fresh – quite zesty. Very clean and brisk, not especially sweet but a well-balanced drink. Not very concentrated. (JR)
