Château Gruaud Larose is a 2ème cru classé property that produces one of St Julien's most full-bodied and long-lived wines. It owns 84 hectares of vineyards located on a gravel-rich plateau, just west of Château Beycheville.
This is Gruaud Larose’s 300th anniversary vintage and what a wine to celebrate with! Picking started on the 3rd Sept, concluding on 20th and all grapes were sorted before fermenting in tank and vat. This is a big, dark, cassis driven claret, showing richness, concentrated red and black fruits, a hint of bell pepper, coffee and liquorice. Supple tannins support a core of richly sweet fruit – very polished throughout, and showing energy and a lovely freshness and elegant structure.
