What the critics say:
"Lovely balance of berry and chocolate with some walnut undertones. It’s medium-bodied with a round, pretty finish. Fresh and tight at the end. Nice softness. 66% merlot, 24% cabernet sauvignon and 10% petite verdot."
"The 2020 Madame de Beaucaillou was picked ll-30 September, matured 20% in new oak for an expected 12 months. It displays good intensity on the nose: blackberry, iodine and iris petals scents, just a scintilla of honey. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, displaying fine depth. The judicious use of new oak allows the black fruit to shine on the finish, with hints of pencil lead on the aftertaste. This is well worth seeking out. "
