Landes Arnauds Bordeaux Rouge 2023

Chateau Arnauds des Bordeaux Rouge is made from 100% Merlot.

The wine shows a deep red purple color and intense aromas of black fruits (blackcurrant, black cherry) with hints of liquorice. Very fruity and well-balanced. It is powerful and well structured in the mouth with round and silky tannins, ripe flavors of black fruits. Strong and a slightly spicy finish.

Grapes are coming from 30 year old vines planted on gravelly soils. 

The land benefits from sun exposure, warmth and humidity that are strong assets for the vine culture.

The wine pairs well with game meat and beef on the grill.

Chateau Castegens Cotes de Bordeaux Castillon 2019

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.

Aromas of ripe blackberries, grilled plums, tobacco and dark chocolate. It’s medium-bodied with firm, chewy tannins. Compact and structured. Drink after 2024.

Chateau Pitray Castillon Cotes de Bordeaux Le Grand Vin is made from 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc.

Notes of candied fruit, dried figs, currants marked by their delicacy despite the sensation of great maturity. On the palate, we find this aromatic range with present but very velvety tannins.

2 other grape selection including one handed, before filling the tanks.
Harvest: last generation harvesting machine with on-board grape selection.



Review:

Notes of dark berries, nut shell and graphite. Medium body. Tannins are...

Produced from 90% Merlot, and 10% Cabernet Franc, the wine is medium-bodied, soft, supple and creamy, with sweetness to the fruits and a touch of licorice on the backend. Drink from 2023-2032. This is the new high-end wine from Château de Pitray from Nina Mitjavile. Drink from 2025-2038.

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.

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.

Chateau Pitray Castillon Cotes de Bordeaux Les Prairies 2022

Chateau Pitray Castillon Cotes de Bordeaux Les Prairies is made from 75% Merlot, 23 % Cabernet Franc and 2 % Malbec.

Notes of ripe fruit and black tea leaves, it is a young but accomplished wine, ready to drink, whose tannins are already very well integrated.

Review:

This is juicy and savory with orange peel and crushed stone undertones....

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.

Iris, Veilchen, Trüffel, merkliche Röstnoten, dunkle, reife Frucht; zugänglicher Gaumen, rund im Auftakt, packt dann zu, wohl dosierte Gerbstoffe, leicht herbes Finale auf angekohltes Holz.
