Château Gruaud Larose
Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend
Off the start this has smoky BBQ and bark along with a saline, sea shell mineral, cedar, smoky earth. In the mouth there is still some acidity that props up the smoky, dried berry fruit and dusty tannin

Jan 12th, 2015Stunning! Minty herbal nose. Lots of structure still in place. Held up well over a couple of hours. Probably still has another 5 to 10 years left of its life!

Jul 4th, 2019Musty nose. Tannins are gone. Tart on the finish. Definitely is its prime, but still drinkable.

Dec 10th, 2017Lovely soft herbs, gentle leather, cigars, and pretty damson and red fruit. Poised and elegant. Not hugely long but well aged and noble. From mag.
