Château Gruaud-Larose 2020 : Rich & Harmonious Second Growth Classic

Château Gruaud-Larose 2020 is a bold and beautifully layered Grand Cru Classé from the historic heart of the Saint-Julien appellation on Bordeaux’s Left Bank. Classified as a Second Growth in 1855, Gruaud-Larose is known for its consistent craftsmanship and powerful wines that age gracefully. The 2020 vintage—defined by a hot, dry growing season with perfectly timed rains—delivered grapes of optimal ripeness and balance. This wine is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot and smaller portions of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot rounding out the blend.

On the nose, the wine exudes aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, and dark cherry, wrapped in notes of tobacco leaf, cedar, graphite, and warm spice. The palate is full-bodied and richly textured, revealing layers of ripe dark fruit, earthy undertones, and hints of licorice and cocoa. Firm yet refined tannins and a fresh line of acidity give the wine structure and drive, leading into a long, savory finish that reflects both power and poise.

Château Gruaud-Larose 2020 pairs wonderfully with grilled ribeye, duck breast with cherry sauce, mushroom-stuffed beef tenderloin, or aged cheeses like Comté or Saint-Nectaire—dishes that enhance the wine’s complexity and depth.
