Tasting Notes

Inside Bordeaux Jane Anson - 26 Mar 24
Deep ruby colour with aromatic depths. Toasted oak, liqourice root, peach pit, tobacco, cocoa bean, blueberry. Delicate, well structured, fingers of peony on the finish, still with the reserve of the vintage that means the texture is less fleshy than in recent vintages of this wine. One to look out for, no need to wait too long, one of the few that I feel has improved over ageing. 50% new oak. Harvest September 23 and 27.
Drinking Date: 2026 - 2040

Vinous Antonio Galloni - 27 Feb 24
The 2021 Les Cruzelles is just as impressive as it was en primeur. The blend is 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc, with the Franc very much front and center. Dried herbs, tobacco, cedar, new leather, menthol and licorice race across the palate. Deep and layered, with tons of dynamic energy, the 2021 is impeccably done.
Drinking Date: 2024 - 2036

The Wine Independent Lisa Perrotti-Brown - 23 Apr 24
A blend of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc, Les Cruzelles 2021 is deep garnet-purple in color. It comes skipping out with energetic notes of crushed plums, fresh blackberries, and juicy raspberries, giving way to an undercurrent of tar and anise. The medium-bodied palate has a firm backbone of grainy tannins, with plenty of freshness, delivering a burst of pure red and black flavors and a savory finish.
Drinking Date: 2025 - 2035

Bordeaux

Red Bordeaux, globally renowned, is crafted in France’s Bordeaux region from grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. These full-bodied wines feature dark fruit flavours, earthy and spicy notes, and often benefit from ageing. Top producers include Château Margaux, Château Latour, and Château Lafite Rothschild. White Bordeaux, made from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, offers styles from crisp to rich, with citrus and tropical notes. Sweet Bordeaux wines, like Sauternes, are famed for their rich sweetness and flavours of apricot and honey, with Château d’Yquem as a leading producer.
