Grape varieties and terroir

On the Garonne gravel of Saint-Julien, the Gruaud Larose vineyard expresses the power of Cabernet Sauvignon, combined with the roundness of Merlot and the finesse of complementary grape varieties (Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec). This richness of the terroir gives the wine an exceptional aging capacity.
