Sweet Muscat, like it. I am not sure why it said the wine is SOLD OUT. I just got this bottle about a month ago. — 11 years ago
Beautiful golden color with substantial body. Honey and apples on the nose. On the palate more of the same but quite complex with a lingering finish that exposed something like sweet lemon and an earthy depth, yet pleasantly sweet. Delicious. — 11 years ago
Awesome desert wine — 13 years ago
Nice color and aromatics of caramel and toffee. 39 years and shows a mix of age and soft maturity. Best with a light fruit based dessert like lemon or lime based cake perhaps. Fun to share at Bourbon Steak @ Levi Stadium. — 7 years ago

Half-bottle. The wine was medium amber in colour and offered orange peel, apple, honeycomb, caramel, smoke, spices, sherry and a mouldy note on the nose. On the palate the wine showed orange, peach, apple, cane sugar, caramel, smoke, spices, creamy honey, some coffee, a hint of chocolate, sherry, mild black tea and a mouldy note, paired with medium-plus acidity, a creamy honey mouthfeel and very good length. Judged by this half-bottle the wine has just passed its plateau and started its slow journey on the downward slope. A good, medium-bodied Sauternes with lots of botrytis character. Drink now. 89 — 12 years ago
2007 Petit Guiraud Sauternes. Excellent. — 13 years ago
Rich and elegant. Mature, noble, balanced, very long finish. — 7 years ago
Pale gold color and a restrained nose showing a bit of pineapple, guava and honey but just lacking sufficient apricot and caramel to give it real botrtis character. Nice but a bit lacking — 8 years ago
Lovely young Sauternes . Apricots peaches and good acidity!

Second growth Sauternes showing well after meal with friends. For some reason seemed to be more complex than my first bottle several months ago. Chunky marmalade & lanolin notes, oh so integrated after 16 years in bottle. Still fresh & with some snap. — 4 years ago
