61% Cab, 31% Merlot, 4% PV, 3% CF and a drop (1%) of Malbec. Aged 17 months in fine-grained French oak barrels (Medium toast), 30% new.
Serious stuff, this has a sexy feel to it with good weight, length and depth. A really solid core of jammy fruit. Classic and has exceptional grip for the vintage. Gruaud is back in the super-second league.
