The 2020 Petit Gravet Aîné has a deep garnet-purple color, needing a little swirling to unlock profound notions of preserved plums, blackberry jam and raspberry coulis, plus hints of tar, red roses and dried Provence herbs. The medium to full-bodied palate is elegantly crafted with tightly knit black fruit and savory layers and very fine-grained tannins, lifted with seamless freshness, finishing long and earthy. It is a wine of great restraint and with a quiet intensity that will reward the patient.

The 2014 Petit-Gravet-Aine is located on the pied de côte in Saint Emilion. It has a gorgeous bouquet with pure dark cherry and blueberry aromas. There is some new oak to be subsumed, but there is plenty of fruit to soak that up. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine line of acidity, harmonious with a brisk, quite minerally finish. Excellent—this is well worth seeking out.
