Lisa Perrotti Brown im März 2020:

The 2017 Marquis d'Alesme Becker is a blend of 61% Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot. 6% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple in color. it has a very serious. classic nose of warm cassis. cedar chest. pencil lead and fragrant earth with wafts of violets and dark chocolate. Medium-bodied. it has a solid backbone of firm. ripe. grainy tannins and a muscular mid-palate of tightly wound layers. delivering lovely purity and great length.

Antonio Galloni im März 2020:

The 2017 Marquis d'Alesme is a powerful. dark Margaux. Black cherry. plum. crème de cassis. tobacco. leather. menthol. espresso and tobacco accents add to the wine's decidedly potent feel. Ample and creamy on the palate. the 2017 shows the important presence of Merlot in the blend. which among other things. gives a real sense of immediacy.

94 Punkte
Cuvee: 50 Cabernet Sauvignon 44 Merlot 3 Cabernet Franc 3 Petit Verdot Erntezeitpunkt: zwischen 20. September und 15. October Schöne röstige und zugleich fruchtige Nase. Etwas Mokka und süsse Kirsche. Am Gaumen saftig und frisch mit tollen Zusammenspiel der Komponente. Sehr klares und sauberes Finish. Die Tannine sind reif und tragen den Wein im langen Finale. Nach wie vor ein grandioser Weinwert Auch in 2018 ändert sich daran nichts.


James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Labegorce 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

This is a plump and rich Labégorce with a full body. juicy tannins and a long and flavorful finish. Lots of pure and intense fruit.




James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Labegorce 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

Silky and refined in feel, with perfumy black currant paste, plum reduction and blackberry compote notes forming the core while sandalwood, black tea and cedar accents drape the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.



Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Labegorce 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Fontenil hits the ground running with vivacious notes of baked black plums, stewed black cherries and black raspberry preserves, followed by hints of molten licorice, ground cloves and sandalwood. The rich, full-bodied palate (15% alcohol) is jam-packed with black fruit preserves and exotic spice accents, framed by plush tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and perfumed.


Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Labegorce 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

The 2018 Labégorce is a plump, juicy Margaux that will drink well right out of the gate. Succulent dark cherry, plum, spice, licorice, chocolate and new French oak are all kicked up in this decidedly opulent, heady Margaux. Soft curves and pliant fruit add to its raciness. Drink it over the next 10-15 years.



Neal Martin bewertet den Chateau Labegorce 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

The 2018 Labegorce has a very seductive bouquet of pure black cherries, blueberry and crushed floral scents. This is one of the more precocious 2018 Margaux, revealing an increasing floral element with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red and black fruit laced with tar and licorice. Very cohesive, tightening up toward the finish, which retains fine nuance and mineralité.



 

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Marquis d Alesme 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

This is a wonderful wine with dark berries. wet earth and dark tea. Full body. firm and striking tannins and a long. flavorful finish.



James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Marquis d Alesme 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

Plush and enticing. with a caressing feel to the layers of blueberry. raspberry and blackberry puree flavors. Light black tea and mesquite accents add cut and range on the finish. Long and gorgeous.



Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Marquis d Alesme 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

The 2018 Marquis d'Alesme Becker is from the lieu-dit Les Terrasses de Margaux. The blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon. 35% Merlot. 5% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet Franc. and it has 14.5% alcohol. It is to be aged 18 months in 65% new and 35% two-year-old barrels. Deep purple-black in color. it leaps from the glass with bold. expressive black cherries. warm plums. crème de cassis and red roses scents with touches of baking spices. potpourri and fragrant earth. Full-bodied. rich and opulent. it completely fills the palate with hedonic black fruit preserves and spices. framed by firm. velvety tannins and finishing with fantastic length.



Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Marquis d Alesme 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

The 2018 Marquis d'Alesme is gorgeous. In 2018 Marquis d'Alesme is far more aromatically complex and more nuanced than it has been in the recent past. Sweet floral. savory and spice add striking layers of dimension. The fruit is especially vibrant. with none of the overextracted notes or heaviness that plagued some recent vintages. The 2018 is really impressive. The blend is 55% Cabernet Sauvignon. 35% Merlot. 5% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet Franc. I can't wait to taste it from bottle.


CB Weinhandel bewertet den Chateau Marquis d Alesme 2018 Margaux wie folgt:
Mittlere bis volle Dichte zeigend. die Nase ist noch leicht verschlossen. dunkle Frucht. zarte Röstaromatik. Im Mund sehr schön fleischig. harmonisch mit straffem und dennoch schmelzigen Tanninen. Sauber und klar mit guter Länge. und vergibt ihm 92-93+ Punkte.

Verkostungsbericht aus dem April 201 von James Suckling:

Tight and focused with bright fruit and stone and walnut character. Medium body and a silky finish. Polished second wine.






 

Lisa Perrotti Brown im November 2018: 90

Medium to deep garnet-purple colored. the 2016 Kirwan is scented of red plums. cassis. redcurrants. earth and cigar box. The palate is medium-bodied. lean. chewy and lively with an earthy finish.

 

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Kirwan 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

Tight and very focused this year with blackberries and olive and bark undertones. Full body. chewy tannins and a savory and juicy finish. Solid.




James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Kirwan 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

Very expressive. with polished cassis. raspberry and blackberry puree flavors. carried by silky but substantial grip. The refined and persistent finish lets the fruit play out nicely. A lovely wine in the making.



Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Kirwan 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

The 2018 Kirwan is deep garnet-purple in color and gives intense. lifted scents of kirsch. black raspberries and warm cassis with nuances of rose hip tea. tar. fragrant earth and wild sage. The full-bodied palate delivers a great intensity of vibrant fruit with loads of earthy nuances and a firm. fine-grained frame. finishing long and perfumed.



Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Kirwan 2018 Margaux wie folgt:

The 2018 Kirwan is bold and potent in its first impression. A rush of dark red/purplish fruit makes a strong opening statement. Today. the 2018 is a bit chunky and rough around the edges. Hopefully elevage will take care of some of that. This is an especially rich. bombastic style. There is no lack of fruit or intensity. that much is obvious.



CB Weinhandel bewertet den Chateau Kirwan 2018 Margaux wie folgt:
Schöner satter Kern. mit leichter Aufhellung. Reife dunkle Frucht. nichts störendes. am Gaumen kraftvoll und mit druck. Dabei aber immer ausgewogen und mit schöner Balance. Zeigt sich bereits mit guter Harmonie. und vergibt ihm 91-93+ Punkte.

Antonio Galloni Januar 2019:

The 2016 Rauzan-Ségla is simply stunning. Ample and generous in the glass. the 2016 is a positively stellar wine that will leave readers weak at the knees. The flavors and textures are generous as this sublime Margaux shows off its alluring personality. Sweet red cherry. plum. pomegranate. blood orange. spice and rose petal are some of the many notes that run through this absolutely exquisite wine. The 2016 is just as impressive from bottle as it was from barrel. maybe even more! Tasted three times.

Lisa Perrotti Brown im November 2018:

The 2016 Rauzan-Ségla is blended of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon. 30% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot aged in 60% new and 40% one-year-old barrels for 18 months. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored. it sings of lifted red and black cherries. black raspberries and cassis with a rose hip tea and lilacs undercurrent plus sparks of tobacco. pencil shavings and tilled earth. The palate is medium-bodied. elegant and mineral laced with firm. fine-grained tannins and beautiful freshness. finishing with great length and depth.


James Suckling Januar 2019:

The aromas of blackcurrants. sweet tobacco and sandalwood are tantalizing. Then it turns to subtle. dried fruit. Full-bodied with dense and powerful tannins. yet ending with finesse and vertical nature. Very deep. Power with finesse. Try after 2025.


Vinous / Neal Martin Januar 2019:

The 2016 Rauzan-Ségla has an intense bouquet. one of the most perfumed that I encountered during my round of tastings. Violets infuse the ebullient black fruit. and traces of pencil lead emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied. very pure and supple. displaying wonderful balance and a satiny texture that belongs in a lingerie shop. This is an utterly seductive Margaux. one of the finest in recent years as this estate continues its upsurge in quality. Few 2016s will dole out such inhibited pleasure.

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Durfort Vivens 2016 am 04. April 2016:

This is really superb with beautiful density and ripe tannin texture. Full body and a round and polished texture. Rich and impressive but all in class. Made from biodynamic grapes. Almost all cabernet sauvignon.



















 

 

Deep garnet-purple colored. the 2016 Marquis d'Alesme Becker leaps from the glass with gregarious notions of plum preserves. crème de cassis and Black Forest cake with hints of potpourri. star anise. menthol and tapenade. Full. rich. firm and grainy. with fantastic freshness lifting the densely packed palate. it has a long. beautifully fragrant finish.

James Suckling bewertet ihn im Januar 2019 wie folgt:

Ripe and fragrant nose that says Margaux loud and clear. Then comes the rather concentrated and powerful palate. where the supple tannins build nicely. Needs some time for them to resolve. Try it in 2022.
