Chateau Dubraud has been getting good reviews from Robert Parker from the 2000 vintage onwards (which goes to show that his sphere of influence is not just confined to the rarefied level of the Cru Classés). From a lovely Right Bank vintage, this is medium-bodied with bags of bright, fresh ... MORE | ||||

"A fleshy, ripe but not over-done style of Bordeaux, this is a claret that is designed to provide immediate pleasure thanks to its fruity, supple character. From the satellite appellation of Cotes du Bourg it also represents an often better value for money than many of its neighbours. Enjoy this ... MORE | ||||

A classy Haut Medoc wine with a perfumed nose of red currants intermixed with tobacco leaf, licorice and sweet spices, Ch. Larrivaux displays medium body, rich fruit, an silky-soft texture, admirable purity, and a spicy, relatively velvety finish. A claret of undeniable quality/value. | ||||

Bravo to BBR for its classy collection of 2005 second wines from some well-known and not so well-known châteaux, such as this plump, complex, chocolate and herb-charged claret. (Jane MacQuitty-The Times - 24-May-08) "Showing just a hint of traditional Médoc ... MORE Drink 2008-2013 . BBR Score: 16/20 | ||||

This is a benchmark Graves, showing both the generosity and the earthy, savoury notes that are so typical of its origins.
