This was one of several wines that we tried in the Bar À Vin in Bordeaux itself. Graves AOC is south-east of Bordeaux, on the left bank of the river Garonne.
This wine was sweeter than the Blaye that we tried before it. This was partly due to some of the flavours and aromas in the wine. I did enjoy it though!
