Château Lalande de Gravet 2022

From a vineyard on the Saint-Émilion plain below the village, this wine offers firm tannins and a balance between ripe berry fruits and acidity. Spice and dryness come from the wood aging. The wine has power through the dark density of its tannins, so wait to drink until 2023. (Roger Voss,Other,May 1, 2018)
