Chateau Castegens Cotes de Bordeaux Castillon is made from 80% Merlot, 18% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The wine boasts an intense, deep and lively red color. The nose offers black fruit, blackberry, cigar box, licorice, some delicate and integrated oak flavors as well. The mouth is full of fruit flavors, spice and fine toasty flavors. The structure is rich, but the tannins are well integrated already. The finish is long and a slight mintiness give the wine a great length and some purity.
Pairs great with meat and vegetables on the grill.
Review:
The 2019 Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux Vieilles Vignes has a terrific nose of classic limestone-influenced red and black fruits as well as leather, truffly earth, and tobacco notes. This medium-bodied, round, balanced Castillon has ripe tannins, good mid-palate depth, and a solid finish. The blend is 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc, aged 12 months in used barrels. Thomas Duclos also consults here.

The 2019 d'Aiguilhe has a really lovely bouquet of ample black cherry, mulberry and light floral scents, very pure and delineated. The palate is medium-bodied with cedar-infused red fruit. While not as exuberant as the aromatics, this is nicely detailed and quite poised on the finish. No, I still cannot pronounce its name, but this Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux is well worth seeking out. - Neal Martin

Black cherries, spicy oak, chalky minerality, and hints of white truffle all emerge from the 2019 Château D'Aiguilhe, an elegant, beautifully balanced, seamless 2019 from the Castillon region. It has plenty of ripeness, medium body, present tannins, and the balance and class to keep for 10-15 years.

The Grand Vin 2022 Château Pitray Classique is all Merlot and spent 18 months in one-third new French oak. Black cherries, cigars, smoked tobacco, and crushed stone define the aromatics, and this beauty is medium to full-bodied, has a pure, layered mouthfeel, the fruit and opulence of the vintage, and a great finish.
-Jeb Dunnuck 91 Points
Inky dark purple core and hue. Modern and intense nose offering toast new oak, coffee beans, pepper and ripe dark fruit. Ample palate, sweet and ripe fruit balanced by good level of freshness, grainy tannin and a long fleshy finish with some chalky notes. Well done and ambitious, a bit marked by oak today but should soften from further ageing.

The second wine of the estate, the 2022 Château Pitray Les Prairies is mostly Merlot with some Franc and Malbec. Its ruby/plum hue is followed by a spicy, complex perfume of mulled black cherries, mulberries, spicy oak, and candied flowers. It's medium-bodied, has a round, supple, elegant mouthfeel, and a good finish.

Textbook sources its 'Mise en Place' Cabernet from Oakville, one of Napa Valley's most prestigious appellations, prized for its deep, diverse soils. A blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot, it delivers Oakville's hallmark of dark fruit, cedar and silky tannins at a price that over-delivers.
Review:
This wine succeeds from its sense of place: Oakville, with its diverse soils and reputation as being a premier location for grape-growing in Napa Valley. The wine, 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Merlot, opens with daunting notes of charred cedar, blackberry, bittersweet dark chocolate, and umami. Silky tannins envelop the back of the palate, with cherrywood and fleshy purple fruit integrated into its powerful — yet luxurious — conformation.
