Vinous - Neal Martin (87-89)The 2019 La Croix du Casse offers pleasant red cherry, raspberry and light forest floor scents on the nose. Not intense, but with good precision. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly rustic tannins on the entry, saline in the mouth with a peppery finish. It is missing a little grace but there is decent persistence. This Pomerol often meliorates with bottle age. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (89-91)The 2020 La Croix du Casse is ripe and generous on the nose, presenting a mixture of blackberry and blueberry fruit, quite high-toned and floral. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins and a fine bead of acidity, well balanced and displaying more mineralité on the finish than I have noticed in recent vintages. Classic in style, this should drink well for 15–20 years. |

The La Croix Du Casse 2022 is a delightful harmony of elegance and intensity. This Bordeaux wine is meticulously crafted in the Pomerol appellation, traditionally vinified and aged in French oak barrels. The producer, an affiliate of the esteemed Borie-Manoux family, boasts a rich history in wine culture spanning multiple generations. Situated on the right bank of the Dordogne, the vineyard enjoys the region's favourable clay-peat soil, resulting in a robust Merlot blend with complexities of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The robust complexity of the La Croix Du Casse 2022 renders a tasting palate of dark fruit notes balanced with rich cocoa and licorice nuance. The wine exhibits a deep garnet hue, signifying its maturity and full-bodied character. With its robust tannic structure and moderate acidity, it pairs splendidly with rich meats and creamy cheeses. Experience the opulence of La Croix Du Casse 2022, a representation of Pomerol's fine winemaking tradition. |
