Critical Acclaim

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Made from 100% Merlot, the 2018 Les Gravieres is deep garnet-purple and rocks up with gregarious blueberry pie, chocolate-covered cherries and plum preserves scents with nuances of violets, spice cake and mocha. Big, full and decadently fruited, it has a firm frame of super ripe, grainy tannins and wonderful freshness, finishing very long and layered. Barrel Sample: 94-96

Jeb Dunnuck

This estate hit a home run in the vintage. Their 2018 Château Les Gravières (100% Merlot) reveals a saturated purple color as well as a massive bouquet of crème de cassis, black raspberries, lead pencil shavings, and flowery incense. Inky colored, full-bodied, incredibly pure, and layered on the palate, it has polished tannins and delivers a rare mix of elegance and hedonism. It’s a serious Merlot to drink over the coming 15 years, if not longer. Tasted twice. Barrel Sample: 92-94

James Suckling

A solid 2018 with dark-berry, dark-chocolate and cedar character. Medium to full body. Flavorful finish. Barrel Sample: 91-92

Discover Sweet/Dessert Red Wine Wines

Dessert wines, sometimes known as pudding wines in the UK, are sweet wines that are frequently eaten with dessert. A dessert wine does not have a clear definition. In the United States, a dessert wine is defined as any wine with an alcohol content of more than 14% by volume, which includes all fortified wines—and as a result, it is taxed more heavily. This is from a time when fortification was the only way to make dessert wines in the United States, however such a categorization is no longer valid since that contemporary yeast and viticulture can produce dry wines with alcohol levels of above 15% without fortification (and German dessert wines can contain half that amount of alcohol).
