Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps from the glass with notes of red and black cherries, warm plums and freshly crushed blackcurrants plus hints of violets, oolong tea, aniseed and tilled soil with a waft of garrigue. Medium-bodied, the palate struts tons of elegantly fragrant red and black fruit flavors with a firm backbone of ripe, grainy tannins and loads of freshness, finishing long and perfumed.

This famous and historic Saint-Julien 2nd Grand Cru Clasé is popular throughout the world and is usually released at the most reasonable price of all the so-called “super-seconds”. Château Gruaud Larose was one of the first to use organic methods of protection and defense of vine plants (organic compost, water treatment,etc..) and undertook to follow homeopathic treatments to bring a perfect balance to the vines. The vineyard covers 82 hectares (61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot). Ch.Gruaud Larose offers a dense but complex attack, a truly elegant mid-palate, all in harmony, and very fine tannins.
