Gruaud Larose 2004

St Julien 2GCC. Open on nose....Pauillac-like graphite/ pencil shavings, but once it enters the mouth, a tannic monster emerges. Just brute tannins, rustic and unrefined. Can't see how it will become elegant even after the tannins resolve. A second growth, really? A St Julien, really? (7.7/10)
