Located in Pessac-Léognan in the Graves region of Bordeaux, this world-renowned wine producer has the longest history of any of the five great Bordeaux chateaux, having been producing wine since the 16th century. In the 1855 Médoc classification, it was the only chateau from the Graves region to be awarded a First Growth. As the name Graves suggests, the soil is characterized by a mixture of pebbles, and the well-drained, warm climate produces elegant wines that age well. 1990 is one of Bordeaux's "Great Vintages," and is at its best when it can be enjoyed for its rich fruitiness and complex nuances that come with age. Now is the perfect time to drink this mature wine, perfect for special occasions. |
