The 2022 Château Monbousquet is blockbuster stuff. It might not be for the classic traditionalists out there, but it’s a “wow” wine for sure. Darker currants, chocolate, tobacco, crushed stone and graphite define the aromatics, and it’s full-bodied, with a deep, layered, opulent mouthfeel, beautiful tannins, and a great finish. It’s a blockbuster yet seamless, layered, flawlessly balanced Monbousquet that, in my opinion, rivals any vintage of this cuvée ever produced. Drink bottles over the coming two decades.

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.

This drips with boysenberry, mulberry and blackberry confiture notes that just won't quit, spilling out in all directions as singed apple wood, violet and licorice snap attempt to keep everything reined in. The seductive, velvety mouthfeel and a rather luxurious display of toast play their part as well. For those who enjoy the power style. Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2027 through 2042.

Intense blackberry and blueberry aromas. Perfumed. Full-bodied and layered with soft and silky tannins and pretty fruit with just a hint of coffee in the finish. Chocolate, meat and berries at the end as well. Really attractive now but will age beautifully. Fruit-forward style. Better after 2028.

91-93+ The 2022 Monbousquet is made up of 70% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon with a pH of 3.83. Yields were 30 hl/ha. Deep garnet-purple in color, it shoots out of the glass with bold scents of blackberry preserves, plum pudding, and licorice, plus hints of Indian spices and fragrant soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is chock full of bright, vibrant black fruits, framed by ripe, grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and spicy.
