Details
Château Gruaud-Larose--Vintage 1996
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé
Tasting note: On typically top form. Briefly: opaque; distinctive, spicy, good fruit (April 1997). Showing well at a British Airways blind tasting in October 1999. Now a lively ruby colour; multi-layered fruit on nose and palate. Masked tannins. My highest mark of the St-Juliens at the MW tasting. Last noted Nov 2000 *(****) 2006-2020 M.B.
