Details
Château Gruaud-Larose--Vintage 1985
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé. Château-bottled
Bin-soiled, damp-affected and damaged labels. Levels into neck
Tasting note: Wines of this style and quality do not 'come of age' at 21, but more like 15. Its appearance was not longer 'impressively deep' but a softer, luminous garnet; fully evolved bouquet and flavour, rich, good fruit, expansive, fleshy. Last noted April 2000. On the verge of 5-star. No signs of fading away. MB
