The 2020 vintage of Gruaud Larose 3000mL is a true gem from the renowned Saint-Julien region in Bordeaux, France. This wine, produced by the esteemed Château Gruaud Larose, is a testament to the impeccable quality of the terroir and the expertise of the winemakers. On the nose, one is greeted with intense aromas of ripe blackcurrant, black cherry, and plum, accompanied by subtle hints of cedar, tobacco, and graphite. On the palate, this full-bodied wine offers a rich and complex experience, with flavours of dark fruits, spices, and a touch of earthiness. The tannins are firm yet velvety, providing a smooth and lengthy finish. This wine's deep, ruby red colour is a true reflection of its bold and elegant character. Enjoy now or cellar for further development. A must-try for any Bordeaux enthusiast.
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
