Bordeaux Blend: Sémillon.The 2022 Doisy-Daëne has an intense bouquet that blossoms in the glass: dried honey, quince and honeysuckle, with light saffron scents emerging with time. The palate is brimming with tension, razor-sharp acidity, quince and tangerine, leading to a slightly peachy, vivaciou...

Bordeaux Blend: Sauvignon Blanc.Pale gold in colour, this has enjoyable yellow peach and white pear fruit character, some tart acidities that cut through the fleshy ripeness of the vintage, with gunsmoke and cut grass aromatics - capturing more varietal signature than many in the vintage. Owner Jacq...

Bordeaux Blend: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon.Clear ripeness to the plum colour, this is enjoyable, not quite as much depth as some but that actually fills a gap in this vintage, where there is a lack of unfussy, well balanced, good quality wines that won't need a pick axe to get through the tannins. M...

Bordeaux Blend: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet FrancOne of several over-performing second wines in this vintage is the 2022 Le Marquis de Calon-Ségur, a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and seamless Saint-Estèphe redolent of minty berries, liquorice and rose petals. Lively and penetrating, it p...

Bordeaux Blend: Merlot, Cabernet Franc.The 2022 Plince is dark, supple and quite engaging. Black cherry, plum, licorice, menthol, spice and leather all flesh out. The ripeness of the year is evident in the wine's profile, but this is an en primeur sample. It will be interesting to see how this turns...

High expectations for this estate in 2022, and it delivers by keeping a foot on the brake in the face of the high intensity potential of the vintage. This is impressive, so much Left Bank character, full of slate and liquorice, easy to recommend with ageing potential. Transmits a real joy among the...

Bordeaux Blend: 100% Sémillon.Pineapple, baked apple and mirabelle plums take precedence in the opening beats of this wine. Gathers itself through the palate to give fresher hints of green apple and lime zest, providing contrast and texture. 92 Jane Anson, Decanter.

The 2022 Guiraud is very beautiful. In this vintage, Guiraud is not quite as rich as it can be, and yet it still offers notable depth and nuance. Spice, ginger, orange confit and apricot jam open nicely in a mid-weight Guiraud that shows terrific energy.92-94 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.The 2022 Guiraud...
