Château Lamothe Guignard – Sauternes, 2ème Grand Cru Classé

The nose is finely tight and offers a certain concentration as well as a slight intensity. It reveals notes of yellow nectarine, quince and small notes of stewed plum associated with small touches of candied citrus fruits, fine toasted hints as well as a discreet hint of beeswax and pepper. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers freshness, minerality, dynamism, a certain energy, fat, a small unctuosity in finesse, a good definition, a small aerial side in the approach as well as a beautiful acidity of the fruit. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of crushed kumquat, jammy mirabelle plum and small notes lemon associated with touches of roasted pineapple, toasted almond as well as fine hints of dried apricot, zest and a discreet hint of pâtisseries / honey. Good length.
