Jeb Dunnuck (100)The Grand Vin 2022 Château Margaux checks in as 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, and 2% Cabernet Franc that's pulled from just 40% of the total production. Brought up in new barrels, it has a terrific pH of 3.61, which is low for the vintage, and an alcohol of 14.3%, with the highest level of tannins since 2010. It brings another level of purity, elegance, and finesse, and it is just a sensational, legendary Margaux in the making. Crème de cassis blue fruits, spring flowers, lead pencil, and violets all define the bouquet, and it's full-bodied on the palate, with a layered, seamlessly textured, flawlessly balanced profile. While it shows the ripe, pure, already accessible style of the vintage, I wouldn't be surprised to see this close down over the coming 7-8 years, given its density and structure, and it's not going to hit its prime drinking window until 15-20 years after the vintage. It should be one of those wines that evolve gracefully over the following 50-75 years. |

The Wine Independent (96)The 2020 Anthologie Cuvee Gros Bec is 100% Malbec from very old vines planted in 1949.

The grape juice, after rigorous pressing, is matured in oak barrels sourced from tight-grained French forests. This meticulous process imparts the wine with an evocative spectrum of floral and fruity notes. On the palate, the Marjosse Anthologie Cuvee Chardonneret 2022 exhibits delicate flavours of fresh citrus peels and white flowers, with an invigorating undertone of minerality. The finish is wonderfully long, rich and buttery, indicative of its oak ageing lineage. Truly a collector's gem and a testament to Bordeaux's viticulture prowess. |

The Wine Independent (96)The 2020 Anthologie Cuvee Gros Bec is 100% Malbec from very old vines planted in 1949. The wine is fermented in barrel without too much extraction and aged for a maximum of one year to keep the fresh aromas. Production is very small. Deep garnet-purple in color, it storms out of the glass with powerful notes of baked blackberries, stewed plums, and boysenberry preserves, plus wafts of Chinese five spice, dark chocolate, and candied violets. The full-bodied palate is overflowing with gregarious black and blue fruits, framed by velvety tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing long and perfumed. |
