Château Gruaud-Larose

Château Gruaud-Larose

"The wine of kings, the king of wines" is the motto that adorns the label of Château Gruaud Larose, one of the finest wines in the Saint-Julien appellation. Founded by Abbé Gruaud in 1725, in 1781 he bequeathed it to his nephew, Chevalier de Larose, who gave it his name.

Gained the title of Second Grand Cru Classé in 1855, it has been owned by the Merlaut family since 1997. The 82-hectare vineyard is planted on deep Garonne gravel outcrops, and is planted with 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot. This type of terroir is ideal for producing wonderful Cabernet Sauvignon. 

The Sarget de Gruaud Larose is the Second wine of the Domaine, vinified with the same care.

The wines of Château Gruaud Larose are noble, racy and complex, allowing fruit and finesse to express themselves, confirming its Second status.

Description Château Gruaud Larose 2022.

2022 1st organic vintage : a nod to the existing fauna and flora of the estate.

2022 marks the Château Gruaud Larose’s organic conversion.

A label has been specially designed for this vintage.

Lions were replaced by storks carrying vine leaves, symbolizing the birth of the organic vintage.

Another nod to the estate's wildlife.

For Sarget, a butterfly on the Baron's shoulder, a Marsh Fritillary, endemic and protected specie of the area.
