The 1995 vintage of classified St-Julien Second Growth, Château Gruaud Larose is a classic old-school Bordeaux. 64% Cabernet Sauvignon and 26% Merlot, with a small percentage of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot rounding off the blend. Since its creation in 1725, an historic line-up of families have succeeded one another at the head of Gruaud Larose. the Gruaud & Larose families, the Balguerie & Sarget families, the Cordier family and the Merlaut family. Expect a deep wine with tannic grip and enveloping cherry and liquorice spice notes. Here is a vintage in its drinking prime.
90 Vinous
Ruby-red with a pale rim. Initially closed nose opens slowly with aeration to offer delicate blackcurrant and mineral aromas complicated by a touch of field herbs. Then richer and deeper on the palate, with flinty blackcurrant, raspberry and herbal flavors carrying nicely through the aftertaste. The chewy, peppery tannins have smoothed out nicely with age. This wine has already developed much more depth and complexity than it showed on release; should it continue to evolve positively, it may yet turn out to be amemorable Gruaud.
