The flagship 2018 Château Croix De Labrie checks in as 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, all brought up in new oak. It’s a gorgeous wine as well as the finest I’ve tasted from the Château. Lots of darker currant fruits, tobacco, chocolate, sweet earth, and cedar pencil give way to a medium to full-bodied, beautifully textured, seamless Saint-Emilion. It has some classic minerality, but it’s the quality of tannins as well as the purity of fruit that sets this above the other vintages from winemaker Axelle Courdurié. This will benefit from just short-term cellaring and will keep for 20-25 years.

Varietal Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

The 2018 Croix de Labrie has really come together beautifully over the last two years. Inky and layered in the glass, the 2018 possesses striking depth and tons of character. Sweet floral and spice aromas lift a core of inky dark red fruit. Mocha, spice, lavender and blood orange appear later, adding further shades of complexity. A wine of tremendous harmony and class, Croix de Labrie is impressive, to say the least.
