Critic Scores

96 // Gismondi on Wine

"I wasn’t expecting such a fine showing from the 2005 but winemaker Richard Geoffrey does it again. September rains impacted the yields and the final blend; some 50 percent of the 2005 is chardonnay which explains its elegance and lift right out of the glass. The nose will wow you with its expressive chalky mineral notes. It’s lighter than the 2004 but the trade-off is the electricity and fragrance. It’s not really built for a decade or two but it is sure is delicious now. Again very good stuff and given the ridiculous price of top Bordeaux and Burgundy you may want to consider buying some of this instead. Precision and purity. - Anthony Gismondi (Tasted: Dec 2015)"

95 // Wine Enthusiast

"With some age, this is a gloriously ripe and toasty wine. It has a rich character emphasized by the round texture and the creamy mousse. It also has great concentration, bringing together acidity as well as dense secondary flavors. With its rich, mature character, it is best suited for food. It is ready to drink, but will hold well. (Tasted: Jan 2015)"

95 // Falstaff

"Medium golden yellow, silver reflections, delicate, long-lasting mousse. Fine nuances of yellow tropical fruit, some sponge cake and almond brittle, mineral notes of black cherries and some licorice in the background, sweet spices. Strong in the beginning, notes of yellow apple, steely core, tightly structured, masculine, opens in the finish with delicate fruity sweetness and delicate mineral saltiness, a balanced food companion. (Tasted: Nov 2015)"

Description

With origins dating back to the 18th century, Château Gruaud Larose has long been recognised for producing wines that embody the traditional strength and elegance of Saint-Julien. The 2005 vintage, regarded as one of the finest in recent years, saw perfect growing conditions that allowed the estate’s Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant blend to thrive. The wine presents a powerful bouquet of ripe dark fruit, earthy notes, and hints of spice, with well-integrated tannins that provide structure and longevity. Now fully matured, it offers a remarkable expression of this Second Growth, making it a perfect choice for collectors looking to experience Gruaud Larose at its peak.
