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
A well oaked, rich, concentrated Saint-Emilion, the 2018 Château Les Gravières offers up a dense purple/plum color as well as powerful notes of blackcurrants, chocolate, graphite, chalky minerality, and earth. It packs full-bodied richness, building tannin's, no hard edges, and a great finish. Based on 100% Merlot, this hedonistic dream will benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and shine for over a decade. Rating : 92+

James Suckling
A solid 2018 with dark-berry, dark-chocolate and cedar character. Medium to full body. Flavorful finish.
