In a few words ...

Graves is the only appellation in France to take its name from its soil type. Brownish in color, this soil of pebbles, stones and coarse gravel is rich in iron oxide. Protected by the Landes forest, its geographical location shelters it from storms and drought, thanks to its proximity to the Garonne River. Red fruit aromas dominate. The 1979 vintage produced a fine harvest, both in terms of quality and quantity. The wines are harmonious, balanced and fruity. With good ageing potential, the great wines are magnificent today. Long underestimated, this vintage remains excellent value for money.
