The 09 is tasting great but I think I prefer the 11. This one has some really nice texter and this creamy thing going on. But the 11 is just so beautiful and tropical. Good thing I have both! :)

Stellar showing. Always bold and bountiful. Scores are too low here.

The Fall Confrerie St Etienne dinner highlighting Alsatian whites alongside French and Napa reds. A delightful evening!
I’ll be honest...this kind of stole the evening. It was paired alongside a pumpkin spice creme brûlée and it was an astounding pairing. Out of mag. Honeyed apricot, cashews, Mexican vanilla. Could still use another 7-10yrs away, but hard to ignore now!

Paired it with pâté and I'm one happy camper !!

A more exotic/tropical fruit profile than with 03 with a very desirable tartness.

Mar 2nd, 2014A showstopper, especially for its price. Decadent and lush. Layers of tropical fruit, dried pineapple, dried apricot and apricot jam. Nice vein of acidity to keep it light and lively. On the finish Vietnamese coconut caramel custard, a waft of cardamom. Gorgeous.

A rich, tropical bonanza! Quite soft and showing its wood.

NOSE: apricot jelly…pineapple…vanilla cookie.
TASTE: peach, mango, apricot, pineapple, vanilla cream, caramel. Cooked peach (like canned peach juice) lingers — lengthy finish. Almost over the top! 93.

In a beautiful spot. Went great with Bananas Foster. The wine tastes of crème brûlée with a hint of orange peel and apricot.

Château Guiraud Sauternes 2009: Drinking some impressive sweet goodness to warm up the bones! Full-bodied. Golden color in appearance. Pronounced aromas. Balanced acidity & sweetness. Layers and layers of intense flavors: Honey, pineapple, apricot, peach, caramel & orange marmalade. Smooth persistent finish. For me, this was an outstanding wine. Simply gorgeous! Great day to all! Cheers🍷
