Noteringar:
2007-07-20 00:58 WS: Aromas of sweet plums and tobacco follow through to a medium- to full-bodied palate, with chewy tannins and a medium finish. A bit austere but well made. Best after 2008. 37,500 cases made. –JS
2007-07-20 00:58 WA: A sweet, fruity, medium-bodied, surprisingly forward effort, the deep plum/purple-colored 2002 Gruaud Larose exhibits ripe aromas revealing herbaceous as well as spice notes. There is some potentially worrisome astringent tannin in the finish, but the wine’s depth augers well for this being ultimately resolved and integrated. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2018
2007-07-20 00:58 IWC: By Stephen Tanzer Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, May/Jun 05 ($29-$38) Medium red-ruby. Slightly horsey aromas of currant liqueur, leather and smoke. Then sweet and rather easygoing in the mouth, with flavors of red berry syrup, coffee, chocolate and minerals. along with some herbal highlights. Conveys an impression of sucrosity and finishes with dusty tannins and good length. Compared to this wine, the 2001 and 2000 were distinctly more rustic and leathery. 88 points
