Chateau Brown rouge 2019

- 93 Punkte DECANTER und TOP VALUE, Jane Anson: "A firm, well put together and confident Brown in 2019. This has pretty high tannin content in terms of how it feels in the mouth, with the Cabernet Sauvignon taking control for now. Flavours of cassis fruits, chocolate and crushed slate - an enjoyable and well crafted wine. Great concentration, easily equals the excellent 2018 but with a little more juice. 45% new oak, 3.71pH, IPT73. A yield of 42hl/ha. Harvest September 25 to October 14. Drinking Window 2025 – 2040"

- 93 Punkte WINE ENTHUSIAST, Roger Voss: „This ripe, smoky wine offers attractive red-berry fruits and layers of fine tannins. It is structured, with a dominance of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. Drink this wine, with good potential, from 2025.“

- WINESPECTATOR, James Molesworth: „Open and forward in feel, featuring a wave of warmed cassis, steeped plum and blackberry notes, with licorice and tar accents. Delivers a nice tug of earth on the finish, as the fruit keeps pace. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2028. 7,000 cases made.“

- 94 Punkte FALSTAFF, Peter Moser: „Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Nuancen von Nougat und Kräutern, dunkle Beerenfrucht, ein Hauch von Edelholz und Gewürzen. Saftig und komplex, extraktsüßer Kern, elegant, feine reife Tannine, frisch strukturiert, seidig und gut anhaftend, etwas Nougat auch im Abgang, gutes Reifepotenzial.“

- JANCIS ROBINSON: „68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 32% Merlot.
Dark purple. Perfumed ink. Cool and fresh. Restrained and sinewy. The best wine from this property for quite a while. Margaux-esque. Well done!“

- 93 Punkte JAMES SUCKLING: „Aromas of cassis, black fruit, blackberry leaves, mint chocolate, iodine and sandalwood. It’s full-bodied with firm, polished tannins. Structured, dense and focused. Try in 2026.“
