5/8/2023 - Jeff Leve wrote: 91 pointsFlowers, cherries, currants, cigar wrappers and a touch of spice create the nose. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, fresh, spicy, and savory, with a peppery edge to the chewy currants in the finish. Drink from 2026-2045. 90-92 Pts. |

5/1/2023 - vvWine.ch wrote: 91 points91 vvPunkte / Fruchtig und mit floralen Tönen ist dieses Bouquet nicht sonderlich komplex, jedoch charmant. Im Gaumen leichtfüssig, zeigt eine knackige Frucht, die Tannine sind gut dosiert, tragen den Wein zusammen mit einer feinen Säure in ein angenehm langes Finale mit wiederum floralen Rückaromen. Stimmig und vermutlich schon in seiner Jugend mit Spass zu trinken. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 / UGCB / Château Lynch-Bages) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch |

8/15/2023 - Jay A wrote: 90 pointsWhen I taste this wine, the word that comes to mind is claret - the British term for red Bordeaux wine. Ripe red cassis and plum fruit, cedar and tobacco…maybe some leather. It is bright and a quaffable wine. May be a little on the simple side, but it is simple done well. Not an intellectual or wine you ponder, but just pop, pour and enjoy. It is food friendly. Glad to see this 5th growth doing some nice things. |

This is a beauty packed with layers of supple-textured, ripe, dark red fruits, freshness, silky tannins and a chewy, red berry finish that shows off its purity, leafy herbs, cedar, tobacco and spicy edges quite nicely. Drink from 2025-2045. |

5/10/2021 - chatters wrote: NRAiroldi - Bordeaux En Primeur 2020 (Quay Restaurant, International Passenger Terminal, Sydney): Very slightly meaty, clay, blackcurrant and blackberry are slightly polished, sweet spice. In the mouth it has juicy, medium plus intensity acidity, tight tannins are chalky textured and the fruit proves a little more red hued here, slight alcohol warmth, touch of bitter coffee on the finish. Meh. |

5/20/2021 - Jeff Leve wrote: 91 pointsTobacco, cedar, flowers, mint and creme de cassis come to the forefront with little effort. Medium/full-bodied, with a generous dose of chewy currants, herbs and cigar wrapper, there is serious Pauillac character here. This is the best vintage of Croizet-Bages I recall tasting. Priced correctly, this is worth taking a look at. 90-92 |

2/2/2023 - JimHow Likes this wine: 93 pointsSo back in the summer of 1979, when I was 20 years old, and I weighed in at 139 lbs., and I was going to be the President of the United States of America someday without any question, I was malingering on a bench one afternoon at Christ's College, Cambridge University, Cambridge, England, U.K., during a time when I was studying Shakespeare and Victorian History. Christ's College is the alma mater of Erasmus, Milton, and Darwin... and some dude named Sacha Baron Cohen... and I'm guessing more than a few other lunatics. I think there is a Monty Python alum or two with a connection. I was sitting on a bench near Milton's mulberry tree in the garden there at Christ's College, planted back in 1609 and still there to this day, and one of my professors came by and asked me what I was reading... David Copperfield, which I had finally gotten around to... and I recall the old stuffed shirt saying to me... "Well, you can certainly do worse than that...." And I remember that was the day, in the summer of 1979, when I was 20 years old, that I first learned the word "corroboration"... Such a British, Victorian word.... I was at Chapter 23 of David Copperfield, titled; "I Corroborate Mr. Dick and Choose a Profession." I thought of that moment in time, back in the summer of 1979, in the garden at Christ's College, Cambridge, when I sipped the 2019 Chateau Croizet-Bages tonight, a very lovely Pauillac, in all my years of drinking Bordeaux I'm not sure I've had the pleasure of a Croizet-Bages, this is an Oxford-Cambridge kind of effort, checking in at a "low" 13% alcohol level. I love this wine! To me it is about as "classic" Pauillac as you are going to find! It is great, and "corroborates" everything that I have heard about the 2019 vintage, which some, no less than the experts at Farr Vintners, are calling the "greatest vintage ever." I have to say, from what I'm seeing, 2019 is 2016 with personality." I have been stunned by what I have seen from 2019 so far, especially the Montrose, and now this beautiful Croizet-Bages, whose loveliness "corroborates" the reputed greatness of the 2019 Bordeaux vintage. I got this for in the $30 range on sale in NH, will search out more. Classic, pure, beautifully representative of the Pauillac terroir, and coming in at a beautifully balanced 13%, which defines this wine. Bravo! 93+ points. |

Fresh and clean with some clove and cinnamon towards the finish. Good and soft finish. Tannins are prominent now and will soften with time. Ready to drink with minimal decanting. |
