Château Gruaud Larose - Saint-Julien (Grand Cru Classé) 1981 (750ml) Sparking Blend winemakingCritical Acclaim 91 points Wine Spectator Polished, big, dark colored, with rich and opulent aromas and flavors and loads of tobacco, cedary and berry character. (JS, 10 1994) 90 points Vinous The 1981 Gruaud Larose is a bottle that I chose when proprietor Jean Merlaut invited me to pick a mature vintage. Though it is now a rather forgotten year, I have fond memories of the Gruaud Larose and I was intrigued to find out if it was still drinking well.
