Côte de Beaune

A key wine-producing district of Burgundy in the east of France.

The Côte de Beaune area is the southern part of the Côte d'Or, the limestone ridge that is home to the great names of Burgundy wine. The Côte de Beaune starts between Nuits-Saint-Georges and Beaune, and extends southwards for about 25 km to the river Dheune. The trend of producing red wines continues from the Côte de Nuits to the north, down through Beaune, although the wines become lighter and more perfumed. Farther south lie the great names of white Burgundy such as Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet.

Product Details

Château Gruaud Larose is a Second Growth estate in the Saint-Julien appellation of Bordeaux. The estate is located on a gravel and clay plateau just west of Château Beychevelle. The vineyards are planted with 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Petit Verdot.

The 2003 vintage was one of the best in Bordeaux history. The summer was warm and sunny, with perfect ripeness for the grapes. The wines are full-bodied, rich, and concentrated, with excellent aging potential.

The wine is deep garnet-purple in color, with aromas of black currant, cassis, blackberry, cedar, and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, with rich flavors of black fruit, licorice, and tobacco. The tannins are well-integrated, and the finish is long and lingering.

Ideal for the Festive Period

This Magnum of Chateau Gruaud Larose 2003 is the perfect wine to celebrate the festive period with friends and family. It is a wine that is sure to impress, and it will age beautifully for many years to come.

There are some labels which are slightly soiled, however all have levels in the neck.
