Chateau Gruaud Larose - St Julien 2017

RM575.00
SKU: AWS440606

Château Gruaud Larose, nestled in the esteemed Saint-Julien appellation of Bordeaux, is celebrated for crafting exquisite red wines. With a rich heritage tracing back to the 18th century, it stands as a beacon of Bordeaux's winemaking tradition. Known for its distinctive terroir and commitment to quality, Château Gruaud Larose produces wines revered for their complexity and longevity.

The 2017 Gruaud Larose was picked from 15 to 20 September for the Merlot and from 21 to 3 October for the Cabernets, fermented in wood and cement tanks and aged in French oak, 80% new for 18 to 24 months. Quite deep in colour, it has an introverted bouquet at first that demands a lot of coaxing from the glass. There are notes of black cherry, iodine and just a touch of pencil lead. The palate is medium-bodied with finely balanced. An unpretentious but pretty Gruaud Larose that is benefitted by what is clearly a prudent extraction. The oak is neatly integrated with a linear, almost pastille-like finish and quite a sustained aftertaste. Drink 2022 – 2040.
