2023 Chateau Labegorce Pre-Arrival Offer
Other Reviews....
The 2023 Labégorce has a well-defined nose that leans slightly more toward red than black fruit. It's understated at first but soon coheres and gains intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with very pliant tannins. Satin-like in texture and very cohesive, with a touch of spice on the finish, this is a classy Margaux that will give a great deal of pleasure over the next 15 to 20 years. Warning through: it will be difficult to resist in its youth. Drink 2027-2049.

Notes of ripe and mellow dark berries here with a hint of orange peel. It’s medium-bodied, supple and polished.

Based on close to an even split of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the 2023 Château Labégorce has a spicy, medium-bodied, supple, complex profile that's almost already hard to resist. Ripe red and black fruits, loamy earth, and savory herb notes define the aromatics, and it has nicely integrated background oak, good mid-palate density, and outstanding length. Tasted twice with consistent notes.

On the nose, you find flowers, cherries, blackberries, herbs, and plums. The palate serves up its blend of silky, spicy, creamy red, and chewy black fruits. There is good length and energy here that carries through to the mint-tinted finish. The wine blends 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, and 3% Cabernet Franc. 13.5% ABV, pH 3.7. The harvest took place September 13 - October 9. Drink from 2028-2050.
