A distinguished Pauillac renowned for concentrated cassis, blackberry, graphite, cedar, tobacco, and violet aromas. Rich yet impeccably balanced, it delivers silky tannins, vibrant freshness, refined structure, and exceptional depth with outstanding aging potential.
Food Pairing: Pair with beef Wellington, roast lamb, venison, duck breast, truffle dishes, aged Comté, or wild mushroom risotto.
94 Points - James Suckling
Rich, opulent aromas of blackberries, graphite and a touch of tar. Tightly wound and fine grained, with a full body and a very long finish. Good initial evolution. 60% cabernet sauvignon, 23% merlot, 14% cabernet franc, 2% petit verdot and 1% carmenere. Drink or hold. From a vertical tasting at the chateau.
94 Points - Wine Enthusiast
With its elegant structure and a layer of firm tannins, this wine has density, a dry core and the black-currant freshness that comes with the vintage. The tannins will allow this wine to age well. Drink from 2023. Roger Voss
94 Points - Wine Spectator
This starts with a kick of violet before a well-built beam of black currant, fig and plum paste flavors enters authoritatively. Very solid through the finish, with chestnut, alder and graphite notes adding a defined bass line. Fresh acidity is well-embedded throughout, keeping all the elements in line. A strong showing. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Carmenère. Best from 2022 through 2038.
