Chateau les Graves de Loirac Medoc 2012 NO20231108 Sweet notes of dried tropicalFrom the northern Medoc, where the appellation broadens out toward the estuary, Chateau les Graves de Loirac is a small family producer making honest, traditional Bordeaux at very fair prices. The 2012 vintage is now well into its second decade, with the youthful fruit easing into the savory, cedar and tobacco range that defines mature Left Bank Bordeaux.
