Het symphatieke Château Labégorce uit Margaux maakt een fraaie en moderne stijl Margaux. De leiding ligt in handen van Nathalie Peroddo-Samani. 53 hectare is beplant met 50% cabernet sauvignon, 45% merlot, 3% cabernet franc en 2% petit verdot. Tweede wijn: Zede de Labégorce.
Druiven: 38% cabernet sauvignon, 52% merlot, 6% cabernet franc, 4% petit verdot
Deep, rich extraction, black cherry in colour with very well controlled aromatics of damson and creamy cappuccino. This is a gorgeous wine and there are going to be many many fans of the contemporary but utterly controlled and well judged flavours on display here. Luscious and big, but everything has a reason for being where it is, nothing superfluous. One of the best ever from this property. | Decanter | 2017 | 93
