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.
