Note di degustazione
Magnum. Refined and mellow nose. Complex and intriguing. Hint of spiciness and very fresh. Masses to chew on. Dense and layered. Cries out for food. (JR)

Very light nose with notes of vegetation. Top notes of evolution. Quite round and ready on the palate in fact. Quite chunky, quite long. (JR)
An excellent dark ruby/purple-colored effort, the 1998 offers a classic scorched earth, smoky, black cherry, and currant-scented bouquet. Medium-bodied, with sweet tannin, well-integrated acidity, and excellent flavor as well as richness, it is a complex, textbook Graves. Anticipated maturity: now-2014.

Wine has been made at this estate since the 1300s, but its modern history begins when the Lurton family purchased it in 1965. The property was in disrepair, but the Lurtons have restored the château, winery and vineyards.
