The red wine Château Gruaud Larose, vintage 1982 from the winery Château Gruaud Larose has been rated in 2018 by Peter Moser with 97 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot from the region St. Julien in France.
Strong ruby garnet colour with ochre reflections and broader brightening at the rim. Finely spiced bouquet with nuances of blueberries and cherries. It's delicately animalistic with sun-drenched underbrush, hints of wet gravel and nougat. The palate displays substantial dark forest fruits, ripe tannins, and sweet extract. This is an intense, long lasting and sympathetic wine that can always show off, especially in great years, although it always remains a bit rustic. A big farmer with a brocade waistcoat and gold pocket watch!
