CB Weinhandel bewertet den Chateau Fonplegade 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru wie folgt:
verkostet auf Chateau Fonplegade am 02.04.2019 Cuvee:90 Merlot / 10Cabernet Franc Erntezeitpunkt: zwischen 13. September und 29. September Ausbau: der Ausbau wird über 16 -18 Monate stattfinden / 50% neues Holz. 30% einjährige Fässer. 10% im Cement-Eitank und 10% Aphoren. Durchschnittsalter der Reben: 30 Jahre / Pflanzdichte: 8500 Reben je Hektar Die Farbe präsentiert sich von hoher Dichte. der Rand hat eine brilliante Aufhellung. Im Glas steigen reife schwarzbeerige Früchte auf. süssliche Kirschnuancen. etwas Süssholz und ein Touch Mokka. sehr behutsame Röstaromatik. Auch auf Fonplegade haben die grossen Stockingerfässer Einzug gehalten. in Kombination mit den ebenfalls immer häufiger verwendeten Amphoren führt dies dazu. dass die Weine immer weniger vom Neuholz dominiert werden. Am Gaumen balanciert. mit der in diesem Jahrgang so konstant zu findenden Säurestruktur. wenn die Weine von der Cote Pavie kommen. Dieses perfekte Terroir. welches auch Fonplegade besitzt. In Kombination mit den Kalksteinböden. welche die Trauben perfekt bis zur Lese versorgen konnten. Im Finale mit ordentlich Zug und Kraft. aber ohne Schwere. 94-95+

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Fonplegade 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru wie folgt:

The currant and light vanilla come through on the nose with some flowers, too. It’s full-bodied with lots of rich fruit and chewy tannins that need to soften. Powerful and intense. Try after 2024.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Fonplegade 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru wie folgt:

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Fonplegade needs no convincing, charging out of the gate with bold notions of black cherry preserves, mulberries and ripe, juicy black plums, leading to suggestions of Indian spices, dried roses and smoked meats plus a touch of tar. The medium to full-bodied palate is beautifully crafted, dripping with poise and sophistication, draped in plush tannins and seamless freshness, finishing on a lingering black cherry note. A very polished showing!

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Fonplegade 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru wie folgt:

The 2018 Fonplégade is super-elegant and refined. Some of the youthful exuberance the 2018 showed from barrel has naturally subsided, revealing a Saint-Émilion of real finesse and nuance. Crushed red berry fruit, mint, spice, blood orange and cinnamon are all beautifully layered. Even so, the 2018 was a bit more impressive en primeur. Hopefully, it is just closed post-bottling. We will see.

Composed of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc, the 2018 Poesia has a medium to deep garnet-purple color, exploding from the glass with bombastic notes of chocolate-covered cherries, mulberries and blueberry pie, plus hints of pencil shavings, kirsch, garrigue and Chinese five spice.

Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac

James Suckling über den Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac:
11 Jan, 2022 – Vibrant nose of wild raspberries, brambleberries, lemon zest, thyme and sandalwood. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, tight-grained tannins and bright acidity. Vibrant and fragrant. Firm yet elegant finish. Drink after 2024.

92 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac

Neal Martin (vinous) zum Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac:
The 2019 La Vieille Cure has a well-defined bouquet of lively blackberry, raspberry preserve and cedar aromas, very focused and displaying beautifully integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied and sapid, with fine-grained tannins, and maybe a little lactic toward the finish, which reveals a smear of dark chocolate and fans out nicely on the aftertaste. An excellent Fronsac.

Jeb Dunnuck im April 2022:
A year-in, year-out best value, the 2019 Château La Vieille Cure is another winner from this château that does everything right. Revealing a deep ruby/purple hue as well as great aromatics of black cherries, tobacco leaf, spicy oak, and loamy earth, it's medium to full-bodied, perfectly balanced, has silky tannins, and a great finish. It's just an impeccably made, satisfying, classic Right Bank beauty to drink over the coming 10-12 years. Bravo!

92 Punkte vom Wine Spectator für den Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth den Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac:
Stylish, with crushed plum and lightly warmed cassis flavors infused gently with dark earth and tobacco accents, followed in the end by a hint of cast iron. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2023 through 2032. 5,180 cases made, 500 cases imported.

Der Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac am Gaumen der Falstaff-Verköstiger:
Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Ockerrandaufhellung. Tabakig unterlegte schwarze Waldbeeren, reife Kirschen, ein Hauch von Edelholz, würzige Aromatik. Kraftvoll, engmaschig, saftige Pflaumenfrucht, integrierte Tannine, dunkle Schokolade, mineralisch und anhaftend, braucht noch Zeit, sicheres Reifepotenzial.

Chateau Saint-Georges Cote Pavie 2018 Saint-Emilion Grand-Cru

Der Saint-Georges Cote Pavie 2018 ist in diesem Jahr aus 80% Merlot und 20% Cabernet Franc. Nach der manuellen Lese per Hand sind die Trauben nochmals auf dem Sortiertisch penibel sortiert und selektioniert worden. Nach etwa 12-14 Monaten in temperaturkontrollierten Fasskellern. wird der Wein etwa 20 Monate nach der Lese auf dem Chateau abgefüllt. Die Weinberge von Saint-Georges Cote Pavie erstrecken sich auf 5 Hektar und sind umrahmt von grandiosen Terroirs wie die von Chateau Pavie und Chateau La Gaffeliere. Die im Durchschnitt 30 Jahre alten Reben stehen auf dem Kalksteinplateau der Cote Pavie mit Lehmauflage. So ist es auch zu erklären. dass die Trauben in diesem warmen und sonnenreichen Jahrgang genügend Frische und feingliedrige Frucht aufweisen. Hier ist alles am rechten Fleck. ein grosser Genusswert aus dem Saint Emilion.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Saint-Georges Cote Pavie 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
This comes from the limestone slope between La Gaffelière and Pavie. Deep garnet-purple colored. the 2018 Côte Pavie comes skipping out of the glass with bright. cheery scents of warm raspberries. black cherries and ripe blackberries plus hints of red roses. menthol. dark chocolate and licorice. Medium to full-bodied. the palate delivers mouth-filling fresh. crunchy fruit with beautifully ripe. finely grained tannins and seamless freshness. finishing long and perfumed. Impressive!

94-95 Sucklingpunkte für den Chateau Saint-Georges Cote Pavie 2018 Saint-Emilion Grand-Cru

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Saint-Georges Cote Pavie 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru wie folgt:
A linear and very tight wine. but shows substance and character with very fine tannins that last for minutes.

Antonio Galloni beschreibt den Chateau Saint-Georges Cote Pavie 2018 im Mai 2018 wie folgt:
The 2018 Saint-Georges (Côte Pavie) is a deep. brooding wine with a compelling interplay of dense fruit and supporting structure. Blueberry jam. savory herbs. lavender. mint. spice and gravel jump from the glass in this potent. virile Saint-Émilion. Saint-Georges has really come along in the last few years. The 2018 is terrific and also quite promising. The blend is 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc.

Chateau Clos de L Oratoire 2018 Saint Emilion

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Clos de L Oratoire 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

A tangy and tight red with blackberry and black-olive character. Hint of dark chocolate. Medium to full body and firm. tight tannins. Fresh and energetic dark fruit.

94-97 Punkte vom Wine Spectator für den Chateau Clos de L Oratoire 2018 Saint Emilion

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Clos de L Oratoire 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

Features seamlessly layered dark currant. fig and boysenberry fruit. infused liberally with a tobacco note and backed by a long. smoldering finish. Latent energy keeps this going. An impressive young wine.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Clos de L Oratoire 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

The 2018 Clos de l Oratoire is another stunning wine in Stephan von Neipperg s range. The greater presence of Cabernet Franc. along with a move towards earlier picking. no SO2 at crush and less oak influence are some of the factors that have completely transformed Clos de l Oratoire from the powerhouse it often was to a wine of total and exquisite finesse. Inky dark fruit. lavender. sage. and mint give the 2018 striking aromatic depth. but it is the wine total sense of harmony that impresses most. The 2018 is fabulous. That is all there is to it. Tasted two times.

Virginie de Valandraud 2019 Saint Emilion

James Suckling über den Virginie de Valandraud 2019 Saint Emilion:
19 Jan, 2022 – Blackberry, chocolate and hazelnut character on the nose, following through nicely to a medium body with integrated tannins and a fresh finish. Tight at the end, suggesting more to come with bottle age. Hints of mushrooms and earth. Second wine of Valandraud. Hint of wood at the end that will dissipate with age. Drink after 2024.

94 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Virginie de Valandraud 2019 Saint Emilion

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Virginie de Valandraud 2019 Saint Emilion:
The 2019 Virginie de Valandraud is wonderfully deep and super-expressive. Red plum, raspberry jam, espresso, crushed rocks, rose petal, lavender and tobacco build into the richly textured, resonant finish. This explosive, flavorful Saint-Émilion has a ton to offer.

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Virginie de Valandraud 2019 Saint Emilion:
The 2019 Virginie de Valandraud has a delightful bouquet, quite refined and focused, featuring predominantly black fruit mixed with cedar and light touches of mint. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, gaining weight and concentration toward the structured finish. While not as Left Bank in style as it was in barrel, there is impressive backbone here. This deserves 3–4 years in bottle.

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth den Virginie de Valandraud 2019 Saint Emilion:
Richly textured, featuring cashmere-like waves of dark plum, cassis and blackberry compote flavors that glide through and are laced with light violet, anise and black tea notes. The rumble of tannins can be heard on the finish, but for the vintage, this is extremely suave in the end. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2025 through 2040. 2,900 cases made.

Der Virginie de Valandraud 2019 Saint Emilion am Gaumen der Falstaff-Verköstiger:
Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Zart nussig unterlegte reife Pflaumenfrucht, Brombeerkonfit, kandierte Orangenzesten, ein Hauch von Nougat. Mittlerer Körper, rotbeerige Nuancen, nicht ganz so engmaschig, feine Tannine, gute Frische, bereits zugänglich.

BIO

Chateau Petit Grave Aine 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru mit 95+ Punkten von Jeb Dunnuck bewertet

Jeb Dunnuck im März 2021 über den Chateau Petit Grave Aine 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru:

The Cabernet Franc-dominated 2018 Château Petit Gravet Aîné (there's 20% Merlot) comes from the upper plateau in Saint-Emilion and was raised in new French oak. It's handled its élevage nicely and has just subtle vanilla and spicy oak notes as well as impressive red, black, and blue fruits intermixed with notes of acacia flowers, spice box, forest floor, and tobacco. Tighter and more backward from bottle than barrel, it's medium to full-bodied and has a balanced, elegant texture, beautiful tannins, and a great finish. It needs 3-5 years of bottle age and should have two decades of overall longevity.

Lisa Perrotti Brown im März 2021 bewertet den Chateau Petit Grave Aine 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru:

The 2018 Petit Gravet Aîné is a blend of 80% Cabernet Franc and 20% Merlot, weighing in with 14% alcohol. Deep garnet-purple colored, it bursts from the glass with vibrant notes of kirsch, black raspberries and stewed plum, plus hints of lavender, tobacco leaf and pencil shavings. The medium to full-bodied palate is juicy and plush, featuring loads of fragrant earth nuances to back up the ripe red and black berry layers and bags of freshness, finishing long and perfumed. This is an effortlessly beautiful Saint-Émilion! This is a tiny 2.5-hectare vineyard in the Saint-Émilion foothills, situated west of Château Canon-La-Gaffelière in deep, sandy-clay soils.

Chateau Bellevue 2019 Saint Emilion

Jeb Dunnuck im April 2022:
A riper, richer wine in the vintage, the 2019 Château Bellevue offers up lots of blackberry and currant-like fruits as well as spicy oak, chocolate, and chalky minerality. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has ripe, polished tannins, shows the purity of the vintage, and just has loads of character. I like this today, but it should evolve positively over the coming 4-5 years and hold at a plateau for 15+

James Suckling verköstigt den Chateau Bellevue 2019 Saint Emilion:
Sweet berries and flowers, such as violets and lavender. Medium-to full-bodied with firm, creamy tannins and a long, caressing finish. Really polished. Drink after 2024.

93 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Bellevue 2019 Saint Emilion

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Bellevue 2019 Saint Emilion:
The 2019 Bellevue is super-distinctive. It offers a striking combination of rich, deep fruit mixed with the intense mineral notes that are such a signature of this cool micro-climate. That makes for a fascinating Saint-Émilion full of intrigue. Red cherry, sage, chalk, dried flowers and white pepper punctuate this decidedly bright, chiseled Saint-Émilion.

Der Chateau Bellevue 2019 Saint Emilion am Gaumen der Falstaff-Verköstiger:
Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Ockerrandaufhellung. Feine mineralische Nuancen, schwarze Beeren, ein Hauch von Herzkirschen, zarter Edelholztouch, verführerisches Bukett. Komplex, saftig und elegant, reifem tragende Tannine, gute Frische, reife Herzkirschen im Abgang, bleibt sehr gut haften, zeigt Länge und sicheres Entwicklungspotenzial, aristokratischer Stil, extraktsüßer Nachhall.

Domaine de Chevalier 2019 rouge Pessac Leognan

William Kelley im April 2022:
The 2019 Domaine de Chevalier is a magical wine in the making, wafting from the glass with aromas of wild plums, crushed blackcurrants and violets mingled with hints of pencil shavings, subtle spices and coniferous forest floor. Medium to full-bodied, deep and seamless, with a vibrant core of fruit, beautifully refined tannins and lively acids, it's exquisitely elegant and harmonious, concluding with a long, perfumed finish. Stylistically, this wine exhibits a much closer affinity with the great Domaine de Chevalier of yesteryear than much of what was produced here in the early 2000s. It's a masterclass in what contemporary Bordeaux can deliver, and worth a special effort to seek out.

James Suckling über den Domaine de Chevalier 2019 rouge Pessac Leognan:
3 Feb, 2022 – Beautiful, ripe redcurrants, bay leaf, violets and raspberries on the nose. Full-bodied with firm and very tight tannins that are polished and layered. Crushed stones highlight the beautiful blue fruit. Poised and refined. 60% cabernet sauvignon, 30% merlot, 6% petit verdot and 4% cabernet franc. Try after 2026.

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Domaine de Chevalier 2019 rouge Pessac Leognan:
The 2019 Domaine de Chevalier is pure, silky and exceptionally beautiful. The 2019 is all in reserve today. Sweet red berry fruit, mint, spice and blood orange lend brilliance to this understated, super-classy Pessac-Léognan red. Lifted floral aromatics and silky tannins grace this exquisite, wonderfully polished wine. Tasted two times.

95 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Domaine de Chevalier 2019 rouge Pessac Leognan

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Domaine de Chevalier 2019 rouge Pessac Leognan:
The 2019 Domaine de Chevalier remains a little reticent on the nose at first and takes time to unfurl in the glass (often a good sign, in my book), revealing black fruit, crushed rock, undergrowth and just a touch of brine, perhaps less than in bottle. The palate is medium-bodied, poised and harmonious, with fine-grained tannins, wonderful mineralité and a gentle build toward the saline finish. It gains weight and cohesion with aeration. A noble Domaine de Chevalier that will age with style.

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth denDomaine de Chevalier 2019 rouge Pessac Leognan:
Very lush and forward, with a lovely wave of warmed plum reduction, cassis and blackberry preserve flavors. Features a subtle rumble of dark earth and warm stone through the finish, where licorice and apple wood accents also peek in. Delivers spine for form, but this is going to provide its best showing in the medium-term, as the fruit is so precocious. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2023 through 2035. 10,000 cases made.

Chateau Poesia 2019 Saint Emilion Grand Cru

James Suckling über den Chateau Poesia 2019 Saint Emilion Grand Cru:
22 Jan, 2022 – Dried flowers, mimosa, blackcurrants, peppercorns and burnt orange on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with firm, tightly wound tannins and crisp acidity. Zesty, mineral character on the tight finish. Lightly smoky at the end. Try in 2026.

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Poesia 2019 Saint Emilion Grand Cru:
The 2019 Poesia is one of the finest wines I have ever tasted from Hélène and Patrice Lévêque. Rich and sumptuous, Poesia marries intensity with vibrancy in grand style. Poesia is a big, explosive Saint-Émilion, but it also possesses tremendous energy. Dark fruit, gravel, incense, spice and saddle leather open with a bit of coaxing. There is an exotic quality to Poesia in 2019 that is especially alluring. Brilliant.

Und Neal Martin (vinous) zum Chateau Poesia 2019 Saint Emilion Grand Cru:
The 2019 Poesia has an expressive bouquet featuring a mélange of red and black fruit and black pepper, the limestone terroir lending tension. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannins, perhaps a little more powerful than the Barde-Haut, and displays very fine precision on the finish. A touch of white pepper furnishes the aftertaste. Probably the best Poesia ever.

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
Juicy and forward in feel. with fresh plum. blackberry and anise notes. Dense. but still silky and refined in feel. revealing a long mineral echo through the finish. This is so pure. it seems almost too easy to drink already. just as you realize how ridiculously long it is.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
The 2018 Beau-Sejour Becot is composed of 80% Merlot. 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. The Merlot was harvested on September 12-25. and the Cabernet varieties were harvested on October 4. 5 and 10. Yields were 46 hectoliters per hectare. and it is anticipated that the wine will age for 16 months. Sixty-five percent of the wine will be matured in new barriques. while 35% will be aged in vats. amphorae and large oak casks of 20-hectoliter capacity. Deep garnet-purple colored. it leaps from the glass with bold. expressive notions of stewed plums. blackberry pie and Black Forest cake with nuances of menthol. mocha. molten licorice and wild sage plus a waft of lavender. Full-bodied. the palate is laden with latent energy. offering slow-releasing glimpses at dark. seductive berry preserves layers and vibrant earthy accents. framed by firm. grainy tannins and seamless freshness. finishing long and mineral laced.

96 Punkte bei Jeb Dunnuck Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 2018 Saint Emilion

Jeb Dunnuck im März 2021:
This estate makes an incredibly classic, elegant Saint-Emilion. The 2018 Château Beau-Séjour Bécot is based on 80% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon that was brought up in 65% new French oak. Coming from a beautiful terroir on the upper plateau, it reveals a deep purple/ruby color as well as perfumed cassis and mulberry fruits intermixed with ample spring flowers, chalky minerality, violets, and graphite. Medium to full-bodied and nicely concentrated on the palate, it has terrific mid-palate depth, flawless balance, background oak, and polished yet significant tannins. If you want to know what limestone soil gives to a wine, try this! It has the polish and balance to offer pleasure today, yet the cellar will be your friend. This warrants 5-7 years of bottle age and will have 30+ years of prime drinking.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Beau Sejour Becot 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
The 2018 Beau-Séjour Bécot has really closed down since I tasted it en primeur. Inky red/purplish fruit, lavender, rose petal, mint and blood orange gradually open in the glass, all framed by veins of chalky minerality. The 2018 is a fabulous wine in the making, but readers have to be patient. Time in a decanter or simply in the glass helps to bring out the wine's considerable depth.

Perfumed nose of dried flowers, sandalwood, pine cones, currants, cassis, cloves, walnuts and spiced plums. It’s medium-to full-bodied with polished, ripe and creamy tannins. Plush and velvety with a supple, fresh finish. Drink from 2024.

94 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Fombrauge 2019 Saint Emilion

Antonio Galloni (Vinous) bewertet den Chateau Fombrauge 2019 Saint Emilion:
The 2019 Fombrauge is one of the best wines I have tasted from this property in some time. It shows all the richness that is typical of Bernard Magrez's style but with less heaviness and a good deal of aromatic presence that helps balance things out. Sweet dark cherry, chocolate, leather, licorice and mocha build into the resonant, super-expressive finish. The 2019 is a classy Fombrauge.

Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Fombrauge 2019 Saint Emilion:
The 2019 Fombrauge, which was bottled in spring 2021, retains the opulence that I found from barrel, still showing that heady mixture of blackberry, blueberry and a touch of cooked meat, if perhaps just requiring a little more delineation. The palate is medium-bodied, fleshy and generous, with succulent ripe tannins, a satiny texture and a gossamer finish that slips down the throat. Afford it 5–6 years and this should evolve into a lovely Saint-Émilion.

Für den Wine Spectator verköstigte James Molesworth den Chateau Fombrauge 2019 Saint Emilion:
This rolls through with a cashmere grace, offering cassis, steeped plum and blackberry purée flavors infused with black tea and incense notes. A late alder thread keeps this nicely grounded. Suave. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2023 through 2035. 23,000 cases made.

Cuvee: 71.5 Merlot / 14.5 Cabernet Franc / 14 Cabernet Sauvignon. Mittlerer bis voller Körper, fruchtbetonte Nase, mit klaren Beerennoten, kaum Holz, etwas grünliche Würze, aber reif. Im Mund deutlich kraftvollerer Eindruck, sehr intensive Frucht, zum Glück genügend Frische. Die Holzwürze macht sich im Finale bemerkbar. Schöne Länge. Kommt nicht ganz an den tollen 2015er ran, ist aber auch ein ganz anderer Stil de Jahrgangs. 90-92+ Punkte

93-94 Sucklingpunkte für den Chateau Quinault l Enclos 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Quinault L Enclos 2018 am 11.04.2019 wie folgt:

This is the best Quinault ever for me with beautiful density and depth of fruit. Full body, velvety tannins and a long and intense finish. Lots of fruit. but the tannins hold it together.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Quinault L Enclos 2018 im April 2019 wie folgt:

This a very gravelly soil with great drainage, but not a lot of water during dry periods. Adeptly produced by the team of Cheval Blanc (who purchased the estate in 2008), the wine nonetheless maintained its poise under the dry. warm ripening conditions of 2018, coming in at a respectable pH of 3.67 and relatively moderate alcohol of 14.1%. The 2018 Quinault l Enclos is blended of 70% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Cabernet Franc with 50% new oak and the rest in one-year-old barrels - but only 500-liter and foudres. Deep purple-black in color, it slips seductively out of the glass with notions of warm plums, blueberry preserves and mulberries with touches of spice box, tilled soil, black olives and licorice plus a waft of lavender. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is laden with muscular black fruit and licorice sparks, framed by rounded tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with a peppery kick.

Antonio Galloni beschreibt den Wein im Mai 2019 wie folgt:

The 2018 Quinault L Enclos is impressive. Creamy and ample, the 2018 stands out for its textural breadth. There is a level of intensity in the 2018 that previous vintages have not achieved, with a balance of Merlot. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc that is striking for such a young wine. All of the work the Cheval Blanc team has done here over the last ten years have begun to pay off big time. Half of the property was replanted between 2008 and 2012 with more Cabernet Sauvignon. Cabernet Franc from Cheval and Merlot on later-ripening rootstock. In the glass, the 2018 Quinault offers a striking interplay of floral and savory aromatic and layered fruit, with ripe, silky tannins that caress a core of plush, plaint fruit and a gorgeous, saline-infused finish. There is a level of precision in the 2018 that is positively breathtaking.

Chateau Clos Fourtet 2018 Saint Emilion

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Clos Fourtet 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

This is one of the best wines I have had from here. Full-bodied yet focused and super dynamic. Tight and linear with fantastic length and energy at the end. Exciting.

96-99 Punkte vom Wine Spectator für den Chateau Clos Fourtet 2018 Saint Emilion

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Clos Fourtet 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

Dark plum and boysenberry fruit is laced with tobacco and chalk notes, while the fleshy grip slowly builds through the finish. This is seriously long and though the fruit is gorgeous, the minerality steals the show in the end.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Clos Fourtet 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2018 Clos Fourtet is a little youthfully mute to begin. With coaxing, it opens out to notes of crushed blackberries, warm black plums and wild blueberries plus suggestions of forest floor, lavender. baking spices and potpourri. Full-bodied, the palate has an amazing texture of soft, plush tannins and oodles of freshness supporting the layer upon layer of berries and spices, finishing long and fragrant. Total time in barrel should run 16 months in 60% new and 40% one-year old barriques. The blend is 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Clos Fourtet 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

One of the wines of the vintage, the 2018 Clos Fourtet is positively stunning. In the glass, the 2018 sizzles with tension and energy. A whole range of floral. mineral and red berry notes develop, but it is the wine's exceptional sense of harmony that leaves the deepest impression. Consulting winemakers Stephane Derenoncourt and Jean-Claude Berrouet turned out a glorious Clos Fourtet in 2018. Don't miss it. The blend is 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc. Tasted three times.

98-99 Punkte bei James Suckling Chateau Cheval Blanc 2018 Saint Emilion

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Cheval Blanc 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

What strikes you is how aromatic this already is at this stage. Complex and decadent, showing lots of dark berries, smoked meat, wet earth, and dried leaves. Decadent. Full-bodied with very ripe and polished, velvety tannins. Great finish.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Cheval Blanc 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

Thirty-three plots contributed to this wine, out of the 43 in production. Five went into Petit Cheval and five into bulk. The 2018 Cheval Blanc is a blend of 54% Merlot. 40% Cabernet Franc and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, with a 3.75 pH and 14.5% alcohol. Deep purple-black in color, the nose is more open at the core of the wine than the Le Petit Cheval, strutting out of the glass with bold, ripe black cherries, cassis, warm plums and raspberry preserves notes. With coaxing, a whole array of fragrant spice, floral and earth notes emerge, followed by candied violets, star anise, powdered cinnamon, iron ore, tapenade and truffles plus wafts of camphor and mocha. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is firm yet possesses a beautifully plush structure of velvety tannins wrapping round the densely packed, complex, fragrant fruit, with seamless freshness and a very long, layered finish.

97-100 Punkte bei Vinous für den Chateau-Cheval-Blanc-2018-Saint-Emilion

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Cheval Blanc 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

The 2018 Cheval Blanc is dazzling. Creamy, supple and inviting, the 2018 is endowed with phenomenal balance. The tannins and overall structure are imposing and yet the richness of the fruit and perfect ripeness of the tannin really stand out. In 2018, Cheval is a bit richer than is often the case, but that is not at all a bad thing. I am struck by how much freshness and energy the 2018 has. Hints of lavender, spice and licorice add shades of nuance, but it is the wine's overall sense of harmony that leaves the strongest impression. A precise counterpoint of fruit richness and finesse makes for a truly unforgettable Cheval Blanc und vergibt ihm 97-100 Punkte.

James Mothels bewertet den Chateau Puygueraud 2018 Cotes de Bordeaux wie folgt:
Dark plum and boysenberry fruit flavors are inlaid liberally with a smoky tobacco leaf note in this red. A tug of dark earth at the end gives this a little gutsy feel too.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Puygueraud 2018 Cotes de Bordeaux wie folgt:
Deep garnet-purple colored. the 2018 Puygueraud features scents of warm blueberries. plum preserves and kirsch with touches of chocolate box and yeast extract. Full-bodied with a firm frame of ripe. grainy tannins. it has loads of freshness lifting the densely packed layers of black fruit and finishes with great length.

88-90 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Puygueraud 2018 Cotes de Bordeaux

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Puygueraud 2018 Cotes de Bordeaux wie folgt:
The 2018 Puygueraud packs a serious punch. Bold. super-ripe and explosive. the 2018 possesses striking depth at this level. Blackberry jam. chocolate. grilled herbs and spice are all generous in this rich Côtes de Francs. It will be interesting to see how the 2018 develops during elevage. Today. it is quite promising and complex. especially within its peer group. Even with gentler hand in vinification. the 2018 is a powerful wine that very much shows the richness of the year. The blend is 85% Merlot. 12% Cabernet Franc and 3% Malbec. Tasted three times.
