2023 Chateau la Croix Saint Georges

Other Reviews.....
The 2023 La Croix St Georges is a terrific effort from this estate that neighbors Le Pin and shares a similar gravelly terroir. Unfurling in the glass with aromas of mulberries, plums and raspberries mingled with hints of licorice and kirsch, it's medium to full-bodied, supple and layered, with a concentrated core of fruit and a seamless, complete profile.

The 2023 La Croix St. Georges is a bold, generous Pomerol. The riper side of the year comes through in the wine's juicy, dark-toned fruit character. Hints of spice, menthol, licorice and chocolate add complexity, but this is a decidedly lush, overt style. Drink 2028-2038.

The plum, chocolate and hazelnut character delivers here. Medium to full body, chewy tannins and a long, polished finish. Crunchy.

All Merlot, the 2023 Château La Croix Saint Georges offers up a medium-bodied, nicely concentrated, balanced profile revealing both plum and darker cherry fruits, some classic Merlot chocolate and savory herb nuances, ripe tannins, and outstanding length. It's a satisfying, thoroughly enjoyable, if not outstanding, Pomerol that will drink well with just short-term cellaring.

Flowers, chocolate covered cherries, licorice, and a leaf, or two of mint create the aromatic profile. The medium-bodied palate is even better with its crisp, soft, lush, silky, vibrant, polished, fresh character. The fruits are sweet, ripe, and juicy. There is purity matched with elegance. The finish is long, and lingering with its chocolate-coated black, and red fruits, with just a hint of smoke, and espresso to add another accent. The wine is produced from 100% Merlot. 14.61 ABV, 3.67 pH. This is clearly the start of another level for La Croix St. Georges. When bottled, it is possible the score could rise even further. Drink from 2028-2045.
