2018 | Chateau Les Gravieres | Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

Rich, fruity, opulent and sensuous, this supple textured gem pops with espresso, dark fruits, chocolate, licorice and smoke. The wine is full-bodied, velvety and rich with layers of fruits on the finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Made from 100% Merlot, the 2018 Les Gravieres is deep garnet-purple and rocks up with gregarious blueberry pie, chocolate-covered cherries and plum preserves scents with nuances of violets, spice cake and mocha. Big, full and decadently fruited, it has a firm frame of super ripe, grainy tannins and wonderful freshness, finishing very long and layered.

• James Suckling: A solid 2018 with dark-berry, dark-chocolate and cedar character. Medium to full body. Flavorful finish.
