Wine Enthusiast
This ripe, juicy wine offers balanced smoky wood-aging flavors. Pure black-currant flavors shine in this blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec from one of several Bruno Laporte properties. Drink this wine that has the power and the fruit intensity of the vintage from 2021.
VertdeVin
The nose is fruity and offers flesh, a certain richness of the fruit and a certain juiciness. It reveals notes of fleshy cassis, fleshy raspberry, small notes of violet associated with touches of nutmeg, cardamom as well as hints of violet, fine hints of Sichuan pepper and fine hints of toasted. The palate is fruity, slightly tight and offers juiciness, fleshiness, a certain gourmandize, concentration, a small side on the hold in the concentration/expression. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy wild cassis, small black berries, small notes of liquorice associated with touches of raspberry, cherry as well as hints of violet, camphor, liquorice and fine hints of cardamom/nutmeg. A good work on the bitter in the finish.
Tom Cannavan
A ripe and chunky right bank Bordeaux, blending 50% Cabernet Franc, 40% Merlot and 10% Malbec. Castillon lies east of Saint-Émilion, with similar soils of limestone, gravel and clay. This has a nicely savoury tapenade character to firm, dark black fruit. In the mouth there's quite an expansive fruit core here, plummy and chocolaty, the tannins are fat and ripe too, and the acidity balances nicely in a very satisfying glass of typically right bank Bordeaux at a knock-down price really. It will also cellar for a few more years for sure.
