Château Guiraud 2020
The 2020 vintage shows all the hallmarks of top Guiraud: luscious layers of apricot, candied citrus, and honeyed tropical fruit, lifted by ginger spice and a streak of freshness that keeps everything poised. Rich and opulent, yet beautifully balanced, it’s a classic Sauternes that will reward both patience and indulgence. Founded in 1766, Château Guiraud has always gone its own way, proudly displaying its black label and earning Premier Grand Cru Classé status in 1855. Today it’s one of Sauternes’ great names, known for combining tradition with innovation.
Clemens Busch, Marienburg Auslese Riesling 2023
The Marienburg vineyard sits in the Mosel, with steep, south-facing slopes that maximise sunlight in a cool climate. Its blue and grey slate soils store heat and reflect it back to the vines, allowing grapes to ripen slowly while preserving the region’s signature acidity and mineral tension. An Auslese is made from individually selected, very ripe bunches, often with a touch of noble botrytis. This careful hand-harvesting concentrates flavour and sweetness, while Mosel’s cool conditions keep the wine fresh and precise — resulting in a sweet Riesling that is rich yet beautifully balanced, with vivid fruit, lift and crystalline clarity.
