Croix de Beausejour (750ML)
From Saint-Emilion
| Vintage: | 2022 |
|---|---|
| Description: | 92 Ja / 90-92 Jd. Vivid, bright raspberry and blueberry fruit, limestone plateau, concentrated but with air and mouth-scraping pummice stone acidity that reflects the fingerprint of limestone. Josephine Duffau-Lagarosse's second vintage but the first one where she was entirely in control from beginning to end. 40 years old vines average even for the second wine. Harvest September 5-9, then waited a little before brining everything in September 23. - Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux. What should be a forward, charming, undeniably delicious second wine, the 2022 Croix De Beauséjour (Duffau-Lagarrosse) is 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc brought up in 50% new French oak. It has ample red and darker, almost blue fruits as well as some violet and graphite notes. These carry to a medium to full-bodied, round, supple, elegant Saint-Emilion that holds onto a good sense of freshness. - Jeb Dunnuck |
