Not bad. Not as tasty as I had hoped. Took a while to open up bot still never yielded the flavours I had expected from this interesting sounding 5-year old xinomavro blend. — 10 years ago

7.5

For a Shira/Cab blend, I was disappointed with the fruitiness and lighter than expected flavour. For the price (Y1300, on sale), I don't think I will buy it again. — 10 years ago

Delicious and smooth. No rough edges. One of the best Malbecs I have ever drunk. — 10 years ago

We quite enjoyed this cava. The bubbles were very Champagne-like, and although the flavour/aftertaste weren't as pleasing as some of my favourite champagnes, for Y1500, how can you complain! — 10 years ago

First time to try a straight Pinot Blanc. Not bad. Was surprised to find that the first sip died on the tongue, but, like a red wine, it came alive with some air. — 10 years ago

Château Guiraud

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2009

9.0

We have not drunk much Sauternes so it's hard to provide a relative evaluation, but the 2009 provides a very nice rich variety of flavours, and those who don't like their dessert wines too sweet will especially enjoy it. However, that being said, and pardon me if you feel the comparison is inappropriate, but our favorite desert wine is a good Canadian ice wine, and neither of feel the Sauternes provides the same level of enjoyment. It's well worth trying both to see which you prefer. — 10 years ago

My current grocery store, everyday white. Great, punchy Sauvignon Blanc blend. Highly recommended, especially for the price. — 10 years ago
