This is really structured and tannic, but the phenolics are very polished and creamy. You smell blackcurrants and minerals with fresh herbs, such as thyme and bay leaf. It’s medium-bodied with firm, polished tannins and a long, intense finish. This will age beautifully. Excellent value for a cellar-worthy wine. 55% cabernet sauvignon, 42% merlot and 3% petit verdot. Wait until 2030 for this to soften.

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.

Deep ruby-hued, the 2022 Château Poujeaux is based on 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot. It offers a wonderful perfume of ripe black cherries and hints of cassis as well as sappy spring flowers and subtle tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, with ultra-fine tannins and no hard edges, this might be one of the greatest Poujeaux made. I would drink bottles over the coming two decades, but it will last even longer.

More charming and less austere than during the en primeur tastings, the 2022 Poujeaux has turned out very well today. Revealing a complex, deep bouquet of dark berries, cassis, spices, licorice and pencil lead, it's medium to full-bodied, concentrated and rich with a fleshy core of fruit wrapped in velvety, structured tannins, concluding with a precise, pure and dark berries-inflected finish. Matured for 18 months in a combination of new (30%) and used barrels, the oak is barely noticeable. This blend of 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot should age gracefully over the next decade and more.

A tight black currant aroma marks this wine. The blackberry flavors are enhanced by the polished texture from the wood aging. The finish brings out chocolate and spice flavors. Drink from 2028.

2022 Poujeaux displays a almost impenetrable colour. The viscosity of the wine is jam-like and infused with lots of red cassis infested berries and crunchy bell pepper. As with other vintages of Poujeaux it is quite a powerful wine, flexing its muscles under the fruity and jammy core. It also holds a lot of freshness and is a well balanced. A wine that should age nicely.

The 2022 Poujeaux has a straightforward bouquet with a little more depth of fruit compared to the ’22 La Tour Carnet. Fine delineation, quite classic in style. The palate is medium-bodied with a ‘cool’ opening, briny and saline with fine tannins and decent depth on the finish. Quite more-ish. Tasted blind at the Southwold tasting in London.

Wine Spectator

Fleshy and generous in feel though reserved overall in style, with wet clay, tobacco and worn cedar notes gently infusing cassia and cherry puree flavors. Steady finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2032. 20,000 cases made, 1,250 cases imported.

Massy and filling, the tannins are chewy and chalky giving a bit of dryness to the mid palate while the cool freshness extends to the finish. Feels a little overdone or the oak hasn't quite integrated fully yet. Tobacco, leather, clove, liquorice and flashes of alcohol on the finish.
