Description
Chateau Gruaud Larose 2009St. Julien
Imperial (1)
Property of a Reno gentleman. All wines purchased as futures or on release and stored in professional temperature and humidity controlled facilities.
"Copious notes of sagebrush, cedar, cigar box, licorice, incense, blackberries and lead pencil shavings… Broad, rich and full-bodied with good balance and abundant, but sweet, well-integrated tannin, this big, masculine Gruaud Larose reveals remarkable finesse, richness, extract, density and a cascade of fruit that nearly hides the lofty tannins…" (95 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Feb. 2012)
“The 2009 Gruaud Larose is blended of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon and 32% Merlot. Medium to deep garnet colored, it charges forth with warm black raspberries, crème de cassis and redcurrant jelly notes with touches of potpourri, cigar box, new leather, hoisin and molten chocolate. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is packed with black fruits and savory layers with a firm, grainy texture and seamless freshness lifting the long earth-laced finish.” (95 pts. Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Advocate, March 2019)
