Description
#1. Château Les Gravières de la Brandille Bordeaux Supérieur 2022. NEW VINTAGE.
20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15%Cabernet Franc, 65% Merlot.
Powerful yet elegant Bordeaux of character with deep cassis fruit, smoky oak, and palate structure from an exceptional vintage and at an extremely hard-to-beat price. Special occasion, full-body style complete with serious cellar potential. Gold Medal at the Bordeaux Wine Show 2024 and rated 90 to 91 out of 100 by über critic James Suckling:
Firm and dense tannin structure here with a chewy mouthfeel to full-bodied. Deep and fruity on the finish.
And also scored 89-91 out of 100 by Swiss wine influencer and Bordeaux expert Yves Beck:
This wine comes from vineyards on clay-gravelly soils. The bouquet is of good intensity, the wine is warm-hearted, harmonious and supported by creamy tannins, perfectly integrated. We find the notes of cassis on the finish as well as a juicy side that energizes the palate! A wine that combines sapidity [meaning “flavoursomeness”] and vigor.
