Tasting Notes
Vinous 91.5
The 2021 Petit Gravet Aîné is a potent, brooding wine. Cabernet Franc takes the leading role here. The 2021 unfurls in the glass with deep, powerful notes of dark cherry, plum, rose petal, mint and a kick of French oak. This is a wine of substance and intensity, driven and unusually hard. It’s a bit of a bruiser, with tough, angular contours. I will be curious to see how this ages.
Anticipated maturity: 2027-2041
