Chateau Les Gravieres Saint Emilion

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Les Gravieres 2019 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
The 2019 Les Gravières a wine of tremendous distinction, and a major sleeper. Ripe red cherry, rose petal, spice, crushed rocks, menthol and licorice are all finely sculpted. Readers will find a deep, mineral-driven Saint-Émilion of real distinction. The purity and vivid delineation of the flavors is just remarkable. Tasted two times.
 

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Les Gravieres 2019 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
A fragrant nose of black fruit, blackcurrants, violets, dried herbs, cloves and nutmeg. Medium-to full-bodied with chewy tannins. Fleshy, with a meaty core of spiced dark fruit and a compact finish. Try from 2024.

 

Den Chateau Les Gravieres 2020 Saint Emilion beschreibt James Suckling wie folgt:
Notes of ripe plums and blackberries with licorice, dried orange peel and roselle flowers. Some cedar, too. Medium- to full-bodied with chewy tannins and an array of crunchy blueberries and dried herbs on the mid-palate. Flavorful and juicy yet slightly tight. Try after 2024.
 

Den Chateau Les Gravieres 2020 Saint Emilion beschreibt Jeb Dunnuck wie folgt:
Coming from Denis Barraud's tiny 4.52-hectare vineyard planted on gravelly, sandy soils, the 2020 Château Les Gravières offers a darker, richer, medium to full-bodied style as well as notes of black cherries, plums, toasted spice, and tobacco. Made from 100% Merlot that spent 14 months in 60% new French oak, it has beautiful integration of its fruit, tannins, and acidity, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's well worth seeking out and has a solid decade of prime drinking ahead of it.
 

Die Degustationsnotiz des Wine Advocate zum Chateau Les Gravieres 2020 Saint Emilion :
Made from 100% Merlot, the 2020 Les Gravieres has a deep purple-black color, rolling out of the glass with ready-for-business scents of plum preserves, baked black cherries and blueberry pie, plus hints of violets, clove oil and camphor, with a waft of tree bark. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers velvety tannins and a lively backbone to support the generous black and blue fruits, finishing long and spicy.

Das meint die Vinous-Mannschaft um Antonio Galloni zum Les Gravieres 2020 Saint Emilion:
The 2020 Les Gravières is a powerful, bold Saint-Émilion loaded with intense mineral and savory notes that play off a core of inky dark fruit. Blueberry jam, gravel, smoke, lavender, licorice and cloves add gravitas. Les Gravières is another impressive wine in the trio of 2020s I tasted from proprietor Denis Barraud. I very much like the vibrancy and tension here. Tasted two times.
