Haut Gravet 2022 exemplifies the pinnacle of Bordeaux craftsmanship, hailing from the esteemed Graves appellation. Crafted by the venerable Maison Haut Gravet, renowned for generations of viticultural excellence, this vintage showcases a harmonious blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot.

Fermentation occurred in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by ageing for 18 months in French oak barrels, imparting subtle vanilla and spice nuances without overshadowing the wine’s intrinsic character. On the palate, Haut Gravet 2022 reveals a complex bouquet of blackberry, cassis, and cedar, supported by finely integrated tannins and a lingering, elegant finish. This wine promises exceptional depth and structure, making it a distinguished choice for connoisseurs seeking both finesse and longevity. Haut Gravet 2022 is a testament to the producer’s unwavering dedication to quality and terroir expression.

The 2022 Château Haut Rocher offers darker currants, black cherries, violets, and sappy herbs, with subtle scorched earth nuances. Medium to full-bodied, it has a layered, rounded texture, ripe tannins, and a good sense of freshness. A blend of 65% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 3% Malbec, it’s a classic, well-made Saint-Émilion that should evolve nicely for 10-12 years.In Bond€1,132.83 -

The 2022 Château Haut Sarpe checks in as 69% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a tight, slightly reductive nose of black cherry liqueur, roasted herbs, chocolate, and spicy wood. This carries to a rich, full-bodied Saint-Emilion that has a round, lush mouthfeel, velvety tannins, and outstanding length. It's a big, rich, almost fruit bomb-styled Saint-Emilion that nevertheless hangs onto a solid sense of minerality and classic style.In Bond€1,132.83 -

The 2022 Château Haut-Brisson is impressive, with the vintage’s sun-kissed style, while staying more medium to full-bodied, pure, and elegant. Ripe black cherries, currants, crushed stone, and pressed flower notes all shine here, and I love its overall balance and finesse. Given its seamless style, it drinks well today, yet it has ripe, polished tannins and should evolve gracefully over the coming two decades.In Bond€249.00 -

The 2022 Château Jean Faure is based on 64% Cabernet Franc, 30% Merlot, and 6% Malbec that’s from deeper clay soils on the upper plateau, not far from Cheval Blanc and La Dominique. Raised in 30% new oak with 25% in foudre and 15% in concrete tanks, its high Cabernet Franc component gives this wine its singular character, and while it’s never the biggest or richest wine in a vintage, it absolutely shines for its complexity and nuance. The 2022’s deep ruby/plum hue is followed by an exotic perfume of red and black fruits, blood orange, and spicy, floral nuances. With medium-bodied richness, a pure, graceful, beautifully balanced mouthfeel, and fine tannins, this classy, elegant Saint-Emilion will benefit from 4-6 years of bottle age (you'll be excused for drinking a bottle today), and it should see its 25th birthday in fine form. Tasted twice with consistent notes.In Bond€1,185.73 -

Coming from more clay soils just across the road from the Clos, the 2022 La Closerie De Fourtet is 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc and was brought up mostly in once-used oak (20% new). It has a slightly dark profile in its aromatics, with ripe black cherries, smoky tobacco, spring flowers, crushed stone, and darker earth nuances. This carries to a medium to full-bodied, incredibly pure, seamless, elegant Saint-Emilion that has ultra-fine tannins and a great finish.In Bond€160.00 -

The 2022 Château La Clotte is another serious wine in the lineup. Mulled black cherries, liquid violets, spicy wood, and smoky, chocolaty nuances are just some of this wine’s nuances, and it's medium full-bodied, has a pure, layered mouthfeel, silky tannins, and a gorgeous finish.

Spicy red and black fruits, new leather, flowers, and incense notes all shine in the 2022 Château La Confession, a medium-bodied, nicely balanced, complex, elegant 2022.

The 2022 Château La Dominique might be the finest I've tasted from this estate. Located in the northern part of Saint-Emilion, not far from Cheval Blanc as well as the Pomerol border, with plenty of clay in the soils, it's based on 88% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon, raised in 50% new barrels. Gorgeous darker currant and black cherry fruit, chocolate, leafy herbs, and a Pomerol-like damp earth character all define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied, has incredible purity, silky tannins, and a great finish. It's a gorgeously textured, seamless, balanced Saint-Emilion that already offers pleasure yet has a solid two decades of prime drinking ahead of it. Bravo.In Bond€318.00 -
