Chevalier de Gruaud

Sort By:

Chevalier de Gruaud 2000 Red (Saint-Julien)

Price $50

A second label of the famous second growth, Chateau Gruaud Larose, this wine offers charming scents of cherries, cedar and herb, but clamps down on the palate with dusty, slightly drying tannins that don’t appear to have the depth of fruit to support them for long-term aging. Drink over the next few years with rare beef or lamb to help rein in the tannins. — J.C. (6/1/2005)

Chevalier de Gruaud 1999 Red (Saint-Julien)

Price $45

A subsidiary label of Chateau Gruaud Larose, obviously destined for earlier drinking than the grand vin. Supple tannins frame cedar, tobacco and earth notes, while the light frame holds just enough flesh to avoid leanness. — J.C. (6/1/2005)
