May 27, 2023 - Pronounced nose intensity with notes of black currant, spices, vanilla. High tannin, medium+ acidity. Medium+ finish. Long finish. Easy drinking. EP tasting.

May 8, 2023 - Smoke, black plums, black cherries, flowers, and licorice permeate the nose. On the palate, the medium-bodied wine is fresh, supple, creamy, and silky, with ample layers of sweet, ripe, dark fruits, cocoa, and a touch salt that comes in on the back end. The wine blends 49% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Petit Verdot, 14.55% ABV. Drink from 2026-2040. 92-94 Pts.

May 1, 2023 - 92 vvPunkte / Diese Nase ist floraler und feinduftiger als bei anderen Weinen, delikate Frucht, Veilchen, mineralische Noten. Im Gaumen mit Kraft und viel Eleganz, präzise Gerbstoffe umgarnen die Frucht, sehr schöne Harmonie und gute Länge, mit würzigen und rotfruchtigen Rückaromen. Sehr schöner Pessac! (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 / Syndicat Viticole de Pessac-Léognan / Château La Garde ) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch

April 23, 2023 - En Primeur campaign for the 2022 vintage Day Two (Bordeaux): Black hued fruits, sweet spice, bramble, slightly meaty underpin, a little vegetal note shows a touch of fresh leaf here as well. In the mouth it has juicy acidity, red over black hued fruits; brambles especially, that vegetal note is also on the palate, drying chalky tannins encase the flavour elements and carry them. Hmm
