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.

Chateau Poesia 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru

Den Chateau Poesia 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru beschreibt William Kelley wie folgt:
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. The medium to full-bodied palate is beautifully balanced, featuring bags of bright, perfumed black fruit and cheery red berry sparks, supported by plush tannins, finishing long and mineral laced.

Den Chateau Poesia 2018 Saint Emilion Grand Cru beschreibt James Suckling wie folgt:
Very pretty blue fruit and black cherries, as well as chalk and stone. Medium to full body with fine, polished tannins and a long finish. Compact, fine texture. Drink in 2025 and onwards.

93+ Punkte
Cuvee: 90 Merlot 10 Cabernet Franc Dichter kompakter Kern, schöne Dichte aufzeigend.

Chateau Pindefleurs 2018 Saint Emilion mit 92-94 Punkte von Suckling

Jeb Dunnuck
Sweet crème de cassis, black raspberries, kirsch, and spicy oak emerge from the 2018 Château Pindefleurs, which is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc from more gravelly clay soils. Elegant, medium to full-bodied, and seamless, it hits the palate with a light, graceful texture, no sensation of weight or heaviness, and sweet tannins. It’s another finesse-driven, beautiful Saint-Émilion that’s going to represent a smoking value.

CB Weinhandel bewertet den Chateau Cheval Blanc 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

Cuvee: 54 Merlot, 40 Cabernet Franc, 6 Cabernet Sauvignon Mittlere bis mittel Plus in der Dichte, sehr ausgewogene Nase, alles perfekt abgestimmt, man hat einen tollen Eindruck der Aromen Tiefe.

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.

Chateau Sociando Mallet 2019 Haut Medoc

Für den Wine Advocate bewertet William Kelley den Chateau Sociando Mallet 2019 Haut Medoc:

Notes of minty cassis, cigar wrapper and loamy soil, deftly framed by toasty new oak, introduce the 2019 Sociando-Mallet, a medium to full-bodied, rich and concentrated wine that’s incipiently complex and elegantly muscular in profile. The style of the vintage has lent this more youthful polish than is sometimes the case, and it will offer a broad drinking window.

James Suckling über den Chateau Sociando Mallet 2019 Haut Medoc:

17 Jan, 2022 – Redcurrants with sweet tobacco, hazelnut, mint and moist earth, following through to a medium to full body, ultra-fine tannins and a palate that grows at the finish. Needs a minimum of three or four years to come around. Try after 2025.

94 Punkte vom Vinous-Team für den Chateau Sociando Mallet 2019 Haut Medoc

Und Neal Martin (Vinous) zum Chateau Sociando Mallet 2019 Haut Medoc:

The 2019 Sociando-Mallet has gained composure since I tasted the barrel sample. Now it has engaging red and black fruit, cedar and freshly rolled tobacco scents, focused and quite vigorous. The palate is structured, with firm grip, very well-judged acidity, good substance and a cohesive, black-pepper- and pencil-lead-tinged finish that has real length. Top-drawer Sociando-Mallet.

Chateau Larcis Ducasse 2018 Saint Emilion

Den Chateau Belair Monange 2018 Saint Emilion verkostet Christian Balog von CB Weinhandel in Essen für Sie wie folgt:

CB Weinhandel bewertet den Chateau Larcis Ducasse 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:
98 Punkte

Cuvee: 89 Merlot / 11Cabernet Franc Erntezeitpunkt: zwischen 21. September und 04. Oktober Kompakt und dicht im Kern. Die Nase ist unheimlich klar und pur von Frucht getragen. tolle Balance zwischen den Komponente. Am Gaumen intensiv. aber ohne Schwere. sehr frisch im Finale. toll gelungen.

James Suckling bewertet den Chateau Larcis Ducasse 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

Polished aromas of lavender, plum, dried blueberry, clove, sandalwood and dark chocolate. Hints of praline. It’s full-bodied with firm, tightly knit tannins. Supple, seamless layers with great length and precision. Still reserved and tight. A toned and textured red with great structure. Try from 2026.

The 2018 Château Larcis Ducasse checks in as 89% Merlot and 11% Cabernet Franc that comes from a gorgeous hillside terroir on the Côte Pavie, located between Château Pavie and Château Bellefont-Belcier. Aged 18 months in 60% new barrels, it offers a truly sensational bouquet of ripe blackcurrants, espresso roast, scorched earth, bloody meat, chocolate, iron, and bouquet garni. A massive, super-rich Saint-Emilion with a dense, concentrated, layered mouthfeel, it has building yet sweet tannins and incredible purity of fruit. Reminding me of the 2005 shortly after release, this heavenly juice offers astonishing richness and depth while staying flawlessly balanced and elegant. Sadly, there are less than 3,000 cases produced, but this monumental, legendary wine won't hit maturity for a good 8-10 years and will have 40-50 years of longevity if well stored. Hats off to Nicolas Thienpont and consultant Stéphane Derenoncourt for producing one of the wines of the vintage as well as one of the greatest young Bordeaux I've ever tasted.

Lisa Perrotti Brown bewertet den Chateau Larcis Ducasse 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Larcis Ducasse needs a fair bit of swirling to unlock notes of crushed blackberries, plum preserves and boysenberries with suggestions of black truffles, tapenade and crushed rocks coming through, building to a subtle underlying perfume of roses and cloves. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers mouth-coating black fruits and loads of savory sparks, framed by firm, slightly chewy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing long and earthy.

Antonio Galloni bewertet den Chateau Larcis Ducasse 2018 Saint Emilion wie folgt:

The 2018 Larcis Ducasse is one of the real overachievers of the vintage. Richness and classicism meld together in a Saint-Émilion that dazzles from the very first taste. Rich dark fruit, mocha, licorice, espresso and leather all open in the glass. Time brings out bright acids and that firm spice of Larcis tannin. More than that, though, Larcis impresses with its exquisite balance and class. It is easily one of the most undervalued wines on the Right Bank. Don't let its modest price fool you. Larcis is one the most compelling wines of the vintage. Don't miss it!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Lots of leaf, mushroom, bark and plum aromas and flavors. It’s medium-to full-bodied with juicy fruit and firm, fine tannins. Tight at the finish. The quality and the polish of the tannins are exceptional. So integrated. Needs three or four years to open. Try after 2024

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.

The 2018 Beau-Sejour Becot is composed of 80% Merlot. 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.

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.
