Gruaud Larose 1982 3Liter bottle {Damaged Lable} Illinois a gentle grip and aA top success for the vintage, the 1981 Gruaud Larose is dark ruby, with a full intensity bouquet of ripe black currants, spicy oak, plums, leather, smoked meat, and violets. This wine is concentrated on the palate, with rich, tannic, lingering flavors. The tannins are melting away and the wine is close to maturity. Robert Parker
