TN: Bunch of Clos de Vougeot, with a pink port and 2nd? Sauternes

2000 Le Dauphin de Guiraud (Sauternes) I'm assuming second wine of Guiraud. Sweet, canned peaches and apricots, some botrytis, short. Others liked more than I did. B-/C+ _____________________________________________________________

Last w/e when I picked up some 05 Bordeaux (and wondering if I should take out a second mortgage) the assistant strongly recommended I try the 07 "Le G de Chateau Guiraud". This is a dry wine and if I hadn't known it I would have said New World as it had that sort of "hit you in the face" quality. On the nose grapefruit, in the mouth red grapefruit. I tried to detect other influences but couldn't, even on the 2nd day. Altogether, a very pleasant wine but not at all subtle. Graham
