Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

From 1888 to 1906 the Guenoc Estate was owned by actress and vintner Lillie Langtry, who vowed to make the finest claret. Today, the George Watts' portrait of Lillie Langtry has become the famous cameo trademark of Guenoc wines. Straw yellow with stone fruit aromas and oak spice. On the palate apple and hints of peach flavors with some vanilla spice. Big acidity, a bit harsh with an alcohol presence. Pass, not worth it. Tasting Sample.
