Château Gruaud-Larose--Vintage 1988
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé
Slightly bin-soiled labels. Levels into neck
In original wooden case with cardboard lid
Tasting Note: The 1988 Gruaud-Larose is probably a 30 year wine. Surprisingly powerful, rich, concentrated, long, and full-bodied for a 1988, and reminiscent of the 1975, only less savage, it appears to be a more complete wine than either the 1989 or 1990. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2025. Robert Parker. Wine Advocate 85 (Feb 1993)
