One of the finest efforts yet produced by this estate the 2008 Les Gravieres was cropped at a low 27 hectoliters per hectare. It possesses an opaque ruby/purple hue in addition to a sweet bouquet of forest floor spring flowers black raspberries and black currants full body the vintage's tell-tale density sweet tannin and surprisingly crisp acids. This luscious St.-Emilion came in at 13% natural alcohol. It should drink well young and evolve for 12-15 years.
