Eventually a descendant of the first owner took over the property. His name was Larose, and he immediately linked his name to the estate, bought by Desire Cordier in 1915. Managed under the direction of Georges Pauly, the highly respected director of Domaines Cordier, Gruaud Larose is one of St. Julien’s most popular wines. Its large production has a quality that is consistently very high. One of the most continuously successful wines produced in Bordeaux, regardless of vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wines are full bodied, but elegant with lots of fruit when young. They age very well and develop all the characteristics of a great Bordeaux, tending to be smoother and more elegant than many contemporaries. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Drink Now or Keep\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Beef, Game, Strong Cheese\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Dry\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Full Bodied\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Deep Purple\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e St Julien\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Chateau Gruaud Larose\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e 2016\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Contains Sulphites\u003c\/p\u003e\u003csection data-liuqs-content=\"verified-context\"\u003e\u003cp class=\"site-brand-context\"\u003eListed by \u003cstrong\u003eFlowers by Richard NYC | Same Day Flower Delivery NYC\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"site-context-note\"\u003eFree Shipping on All Orders · New Store Launch Deals End in 30 Days!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"verified-product-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVendor:\u003c\/strong\u003e My Store\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTags:\u003c\/strong\u003e Skincare\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42986516119637,"sku":"cs_49773","price":7.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/9630\/0117\/files\/mpwv110fmxl6_b27d3aa8-bc49-4793-b963-08d9308fa77b.jpg?v=1789263374","url":"https:\/\/willowcreekspirits.com\/products\/chateaugruaudlarose2016-stjulien-n1kp7v","provider":"Willow Creekspirits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
