James Suckling (96-97)Firm and layered with very fine tannins and impressive blackberry, dark chocolate and spice character, yet it is very reserved and beautiful. Medium to full body. Refined tannins and a savory finish. A sleek and linear beauty. Terrific potential here. |

Jeb Dunnuck (96)Plummy red and black fruits, sappy flowers, chocolate, graphite, and violets all emerge from the 2023 La Violette, a smaller-production Pomerol that was vinified and aged entirely in barrel. As with the Le Gay from the same team, this is a more exotic, elegant style, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with beautifully integrated oak, a round, layered, seamless mouthfeel, and fine tannins. This classy, nuanced, graceful Pomerol needs to be hidden for 4-6 years and will cruise over the following two decades. Drink 2030-2050. |

The Labastide Orliac 1780 Royal Heritage 2008 exemplifies the pinnacle of French winemaking tradition. Crafted in the renowned Bordeaux region, this distinguished red blend is meticulously composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc grapes, sourced from the estate’s premier vineyards. The grapes are hand-harvested and subjected to gentle fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, ensuring the preservation of their intricate flavours and aromas. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes an extensive ageing process in French oak barrels for 18 months, imparting subtle notes of vanilla, cedar, and spice. Labastide Orliac, a family-owned producer since 1780, combines centuries-old expertise with modern techniques to create a wine of exceptional depth and elegance. The 2008 vintage reveals a deep garnet hue, with a complex palate of ripe dark fruits, refined tannins, and a long, harmonious finish. Ideal for discerning connoisseurs, the Labastide Orliac 1780 Royal Heritage 2008 is a testament to enduring quality and heritage. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (93)The 2017 Labégorce is powerful yet nuanced, and wonderfully complete. Cedar, tobacco, mint, dried herbs and licorice grace this wine of tremendous complexity. While it is towering in its size, richness and intensity, the 2017 is also surprisingly elegant. Creamy, ample and flavorful, this is a very good wine with rather pretty floral notes that grace the exquisite finish. |

Jeb Dunnuck (93-96)Another winner from Margaux is the 2018 Château Labégorce, which is an interesting blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot, and the rest equal parts Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot (although I was given slightly different blends for the two samples tasted). Aging in 40% new oak, this deeply colored effort offers a beautiful perfume of blueberries, raspberries, flowers, and spice. It’s medium to full-bodied, has remarkable purity, and fine tannins, and should be approachable right out of the gate. It’s worth mentioning this estate has been managed by Marjolaine de Coninck since 2009, and it’s a rocking value in the market today. Tasted twice. |

Jeb Dunnuck (93-95)I continue to love the wines from this estate in Margaux, and the 2020 Château Labegorce is no exception. Rock star crème de cassis, graphite, roasted herbs, iron, and loamy earth nuances all define the bouquet, and it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a relatively soft, plush, forward style, good mid-palate density, and wonderful purity of fruit. It’s going to benefit from 3-5 years of bottle age and drink nicely for 15-20 years. It should be a terrific value as well. |
