Of all the second classified growths in St-Julien, Gruaud-Larose is the most vigorous and massive in young wine. But, the magic of the terroir, it acquires softness and finesse if it is given time to age. Its quality/price ratio puts it ahead of the other second classified growths of St-Julien!

The 2019 vintage is rated 93/100 by Neal Martin « This needs several years in bottle but should be well worth waiting for. My question is whether it will surpass the 2018. » (Feb. 2022)

To keep or to drink :

    Second wine of Gruaud-Larose. In a rather powerful and tight register, Sarget is a serious and convincing Saint-Julien, with substance, at its best after 5 to 7 years of ageing.

    Rated 93+/100 by N. MARTIN «The 2020 Gruaud Larose is emblematic of a cleaner, more precise winemaking compared to a decade ago. The bouquet is quite perfumed and beautifully delineated, maybe not the most complex within the appellation, yet very nicely focused. The palate is precise and minerally on the entry, with more tension than 2019 perhaps, a little more salinity. A combination of japanese nore and black pepper enlivens the finish. This may well warrant a higher score in the future. There's still a little way to go before this estate reaches the heights of the 1982 for example, but it's definitely on track.» (December 2022)

    Rated 95/100 by M. Quarin «Ma meilleure note donnée à ce cru en Primeur est confirmée. Le vin se présente très coloré, avec un nez un peu discret au départ, mais fruité, pur, mûr et légèrement crémeux.» (March 2022)
