Chateau La Croix du Casse 2022

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Flowers, mushrooms, black cherries, mint leaves, and cocoa are at the center of this wine, on the nose, and on the medium-bodied, elegant, soft, round, polished, fruity palate. I like the softness, lift and refinement here, as well as the powdered chocolate in the finish. The wine blends 97% Merlot with 3% Cabernet Franc. 14.5% ABV. Drink from 2025-2042."

WEINWISSER: "Opulentes Bouquet, getrockneter Rosmarin, Fliederblüten und Heidelbeersaft. Am satten Gaumen mit cremiger Textur, engmaschigem kakaoartigem Tanningerüst und trainiertem Körper. Im gebündelten aromatischen Finale Heidelbeergelee, Lakritze und mehlige Adstringenz. Top-Leistung dieses Jahr. 2028 – 2043."
