2012 Château Gruaud Larose, Cru Classé St-Julien

2012 Château Gruaud Larose, Cru Classé St-Julien

A very different blend to the 2011, with the inclusion of 6.5% Petit Verdot, and no Cabernet Franc, this well-regarded Second Growth has produced a charming, classically structured wine. Dark cherries and blackcurrant dominate a nose that has a herbaceous, lifted quality, following through on the palate, which is bound by fine, ripe tannin and the fairly high acidity, balanced by a fresh core of juicy fruit. This will drink relatively early, and should provide a lot of pleasure.
