Why Madeline Triffon, M.S. loves this wine: "Hey, if you love Cabernet Sauvignon, here it is!  The nose vibrates with lead pencil shavings and blackcurrant fruit, with dark chocolate oak scents folded in.  Full-bodied with ageworthy edginess that just needs a baby lamb chop to smooth out the nippy tannin.  A 'Steal Alert' for sure!"

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


James Suckling - "Blackcurrant, orange peel and green coffee bean aromas follow through to a full body with medium, round tannins. Citrusy, juicy and rose bush finish. Chewy and intense. Some old vine character with bark and dark mushroom. Solid! One for the cellar. 72% cabernet sauvignon and 28% merlot. From biodynamically grown grapes."


Wine Enthusiast - "The wine is refreshing from the start. Its tannins underline the line of acidity and lightness that gives the wine a fine structure. It is vibrant and bright yet it is possible to sense the depth of the tannins. Organic."


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "The 2020 Haut-Bages-Liberal is supple and seamless, bursting with aromas of sweet dark berries, petals and licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy palate. Succulent and polished, it will offer a broad drinking window. As readers will remember, this wine derives from bio dynamically farmed vineyards located on clay-limestone and gravel soils to the north of Château Latour (as well as a parcel of gravel sandwiched between Pichon-Baron and Lynch-Bages). Best After 2025."


Decanter - "A ton of blackcurrant and blackberry fruit, chewy and concentrated, cassis fruit pastilles give a sweet but well textured feel, and a shot of acidity picks everything up on the finish. A yield of 44hl/had. They have limestone and clay soils here, atypical for Pauillac but they help in such a dry summer."
