Château Gruaud-Larose Saint-Julien Grand Cru Classé 2003
Organic & Biodynamic Practices
42% OFF RETAIL!
A hearty, expressive Saint-Julien shaped by the warmth of 2003. Notes of black cherry, leather, cedar, and spice lead to a medium-to-full-bodied palate with softened tannins. Drinking well now, it showcases the château’s traditionally robust style.
About The Producer
Founded in the early 18th century, Château Gruaud-Larose has long been admired for its robust, age-worthy wines. After periods of inconsistency in the late 20th century, the estate has seen a renaissance under renewed ownership and vineyard-focused improvements. The modern wines retain their traditional backbone while showing greater finesse, balance, and clarity.
