94 Robert Parker
The 2016 Gruaud Larose is blended of 69% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps from the glass with notes of red and black cherries, warm plums and freshly crushed blackcurrants plus hints of violets, oolong tea, aniseed and tilled soil with a waft of garrigue. Medium-bodied, the palate struts tons of elegantly fragrant red and black fruit flavors with a firm backbone of ripe, grainy tannins and loads of freshness, finishing long and perfumed.

So much sweet-tobacco and currant character with some earth on the nose. Full body, firm and chewy tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Closed and complex still, but a typically beautiful Bordeaux. Try after 2022.

This has a wide range of red currant, blackberry, black cherry and açaí berry fruit flavors forming the core, with a very sleek iron note lurking underneath it all. The finish uses a fine singed wood stitching to pull the fruit and minerality together. Lovely. Best from 2023 through 2038. 12,200 cases made. — JM

Château Gruaud Larose
Deuxième Grand Cru Classé de grande envergure, le Château Gruaud Larose est à l’origine de certains vins de Saint-Julien parmi les plus puissants et dotés d’une structure imposante. Entré dans le patrimoine de la famille Merlaut en 1997, ce domaine ancestral est né au 18ème siècle. Depuis ses débuts, il est voué à la viticulture. Son vignoble, qui s’étale sur un plateau riche en graves à peine à l’ouest de Beychevelle, met en valeur les variétés bordelaises nobles. Il avantage le cabernet-sauvignon à plus de 50%, complété de surfaces plus restreintes de merlot, cabernet franc et petit verdot. La famille a introduit l’utilisation de pratiques biologiques sur l’ensemble des 84 hectares du vignoble, s’appliquant à élaborer les vins les plus naturels qui soient. En découlent, des cuvées convaincantes, denses et tanniques, qui imposent au moins huit à dix ans de garde patiente. Le second vin, Sarget de Gruaud Larose, duplique l’esprit de pureté incarné par le grand vin, Gruaud Larose.
