Description
From the Graves region of Bordeaux (Graves lies just southeast of Bordeaux city, and is an easy day visit), this red wine is good value given its quality, and a great example of red Bordeaux that has been aged in oak. Made from a blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, it’s slightly richer in style than some of our other Bordeaux – if you like the mellow spice of Rioja with a hint of vanilla, for example, this is a good wine to try. Chateau Les Gravieres belongs to Thierry and Denis Labuzan; both the name Gravieres and the region Graves refer to the particularly gravelly soil here, close to the Garonne river. 13.5% ABV.
