Les Gravières du Taurou! This is the wine that earned the estate the nickname "Pétrus of Languedoc" and, among other things, brought it international fame following a famous blind tasting in which it scored higher than the legendary Bordeaux château. This 2007 is a wine of exceptional richness in aromas and nuances, full of ripe fruit, exotic notes, and smoky undertones. A wine of unwavering integrity, extreme concentration, and rare fullness, with an exuberance of black fruits, licorice, and violet, and a well-integrated tannic structure... A must-have!

There's a lot of hype surrounding this well-made wine, but you can find better value for money in the region.

I was expecting better. The alcohol is very prominent; it may have been opened a little too early. Open it in advance (4 hours).
