The Gruaud Larose 2020 is a beautiful representation of the renowned Saint-Julien region in Bordeaux, France. With a deep, ruby red hue, this wine immediately catches the eye. On the nose, aromas of ripe blackberries, dark cherries and a hint of spices dance together, inviting you to take a sip. On the palate, the wine showcases a perfect balance between bold tannins and luscious fruit flavors, with notes of blackcurrant, plum and a touch of vanilla. The finish is long and smooth, leaving a lingering taste of dark chocolate and tobacco. This vintage, produced by the esteemed Château Gruaud Larose, is a testament to their commitment to excellence and attention to detail. With its firm structure and impressive complexity, this wine has excellent aging potential and will only continue to improve with time. A true masterpiece from the heart of France.
Winemakers Notes
We have been very impressed by the wine, 2020 is a great Gruaud Larose, among the best ever produced. Gruaud Larose has always tried to give value to the role of man in the creation of its elixir; both to his work and to the bond established with the vineyard. The vine stocks and the grapes are nothing without man, without these makers of Crus, from the most modest to the most powerful. Since its creation, in 1725, four families have succeeded one another at the head of Gruaud Larose: the Gruaud & Larose families, the Balguerie and Sarget families, the Cordier family and the Merlaut family. This family attachment has been passed on to the employees who often work at the Château from father to son and from mother to daughter. Key Points - Since the 2018 vintage, Gruaud Larose's bottles have been waxed - Since the 2019 vintage, they have started their conversion to Organic Farming
