I was able to taste the 2022 Château Beychevelle on multiple occasions, and it never failed to impress me. Based on 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 42% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot that will see 18 months in 70% new oak, it's one of those wines that makes you stop and say "wow" due to its purity, depth, and texture. Sporting a dense purple hue as well as lots of blueberry and black cherry fruits, it's full-bodied and has a layered, seamless mouthfeel, building yet gorgeous tannins, and subtle background notes of crushed violets, flowers, and graphite. This is a sensational effort from director Philippe Blanc.Inc. VAT£647.09 -

One of the finest wines to ever pass my lips, the 2022 Château Cos D'Estournel is a monument in the making. Based on 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, and 1% each of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, this saturated ruby/purple-hued Saint-Estèphe offers a full-bodied, massive, opulent style as well as perfumed red, blue, and black fruits, ample spice, chocolate, graphite, and lead pencil-like aromatics, a stacked mid-palate, flawless balance, and a monster of a finish. An improved version of the 2009 (if that's possible), this is a legendary wine in the making. Hats off to Michel Reybier and technical director Dominique Arangoïts.Inc. VAT£1,442.09 -
Presenting a jewel in our collection, the revered and highly celebrated 'De Sales 2022'. Crafted with finesse in the sun-dappled vineyards of Pomerol, France, the De Sales winery embraces traditional winemaking techniques garnished with modern precision for creating this exquisite vino. De Sales has cultivated a rich legacy since the 17th century, perched elegantly at the apex of sublime winemaking. The 'De Sales 2022', a red wine, resonates the signature notes of their savoir-faire. An assembly of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine indulges the senses with its vibrant, fruity bouquet. Aged meticulously in French oak barrels, it emanates a complex flavour profile, enhanced by a medium to full-bodied palate. Anticipate a sophisticated balance of structure, tannins and acidity that culminates in a protracted, velvety finish. A true testament to the De Sales' prowess, the 'De Sales 2022' makes a compelling choice for a discerning oenophile.

The Wine Cellar Insider (98-100)
It takes nothing to sense all the intensity, freshness, and depth here. But, more importantly, it is the character. The wine is sensuous, sultry, and lively. The fruits are drenched in cashmere, and velvet that caresses your palate. The levels of depth, richness, opulence, and vibrancy must be felt to be believed. The finish, with its seemingly endless waves of black, blue, and red fruits, with their natural spiciness and purity is off the hook. The seamless finish looks at the 60 second mark, and keeps on going! This is the first vintage for Chateau Figeac as Premier Cru Classe A. With this wine, it is clear they deserve it. The wine blends 35% Merlot, 34% Cabernet Franc, and 31% Cabernet Sauvignon. 8% Press wine. 14% ABV, 3.7 pH. Picking took place September 1 - September 26. This is the earliest harvest in the history of Figeac. Yields were 34 hectoliters per hectare. Drink from 2027-2065. 98-100 PtsInc. VAT£2,182.49
