Labegorce
Château Labegorce is situated close to Château Lascombes, and the estate has been on a steadily upswing since it was acquired by the Perrodo family in 1989. Hubert Perrodo was tragically killed in a skiing accident in 2006, but his daughter Nathalie now runs all the family estates extremely ably. Readers will recall the almost unbelievable ascent of Château Marquis d’Alesme in recent years … well that estate is also owned and managed by Nathalie Perrodo.
The recent arrival of Marjolaine de Coninck (as General Director) and the well-known oenologist Claude Gros have further improved the vineyard quality and winery facilities via significant investment. And of course, as a Margaux Third Growth, the underlying terroir has never been in question. Today Labegorce is an “estate on the uptick” (Jeb Dunnuck) which is finally “performing at its peak” (Wine Enthusiast).

(12x75cl) 2023Vinous - Neal Martin (93)
The 2023 Labégorce has a well-defined bouquet with vivacious redcurrant, strawberry and violet scents that could only come from Margaux. The oak is neatly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth tannins, well-judged acidity that lends just the right amount of tension. Lightly spiced on the finish that lingers in the mouth with pleasing saline notes on the aftertaste. This should age well in bottle.Inc. VAT£361.61 -

Red-ruby. Sappy, fruit-driven aromas of cherry and raspberry. Sweet, supple and rather easygoing; suggests gentle extraction. Offers good intensity and should give early pleasure. Finishes with smooth tannins and very good length.Inc. VAT£630.58 -
