Chateau La Croix du Casse 2019

-94 Punkte, James Suckling (03/22): „Orange-peel, dark-berry and violet character. Medium to full body with layers of fine, velvety tannins and a long, intense finish. Needs time to come together, but beautiful even now. 85% merlot and 15% cabernet franc.“ Try after 2025.

- 93 Punkte MARKUS DEL MONEGO: "Deep purple colour with violet hue and black core. Well balanced character with expressive nose, sweet plums, black cherries and cherry-stone, candied orange zest, discreet spiciness in the background. On the palate well balanced with ripe yet firm tannins, juicy fruit, black cherries and plums, hints of mulberries and slightly balmy spices. Well structured with convincing length."

- VINUM, Bordeaux Extra: Arrivage 2019 (7-8 | 2022): "Von umwerfend saftiger, trinkiger Art, Tannin mit Schliff, gut gezümtes Feuer: wir mögen das.“ 2024-2032

- 90 Punkte DECANTER, Jane Anson: "A lovely rich and supple Pomerol that manages to capture plenty of the essence of the appellation but still be an early to medium term drinker with welcoming tannins and plenty of supple but gourmet textured berry fruits - blackberry and black cherry are dominant, with chocolate shavings at every step. Impressive from the Philippe Castéja stable of wines. Drinking Window 2023 – 2033"

- 89-91 Punkte JEB DUNNUCK: "Spiced red and black fruits, new leather, graphite, and floral notes all emerge from the 2019 Château La Croix Du Casse. This medium to full-bodied Pomerol has terrific purity of fruit, light tannins, good overall balance, and outstanding length. It's going to drink well for 10-12 years."
