1996 Sarget de Gruaud Larose;
Ruby with tiny garnet rim. Leather, bell peppers, blackcurrants, slightly perfumed, touch of vanilla and sweet tobacco. Fresh acidity, elegant texture, ripe tannins, maturing nicely, this last one was one of the top bottles, there has been some bottle variations, some very mature and pruney, others, like this one, could easily lay down for another five to ten years, altough, maybe not improving much. A nice, quite classic Claret. 88
