The 2019 Haut Breton is a blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with a splash of Merlot from a year where Cabernet was king of the left bank! The bouquet is tightly wound at first, then gently unfolds to reveal perfumed notes of briary, dried violets and light lilac flower aromas underpinned by a certain broody, mineral graphite influence. The palate is medium-bodied with firm mineral tannins but is balanced by plenty of fleshy dark broody blackberry and smoky crème de cassis fruit notes. It is surprisingly taut and linear with a structured frame suggesting this is one for further cellaring. But of course like all great Margaux reds, the elegance and sheer precision and finesse allows it to be drunk on release although it will clearly grow in stature as it loosens its shoulders and becomes a little more gregarious and flamboyant with time in bottle. Drink from 2023 to 2038+ABV 13.5%

| Critics Review | With vines in Soussans, in the northern part of the Margaux appellation, this family estate has produced a ripe, fruity wine. Its structure is still firmly in place, giving a dense wine that will need to age and broaden out. Drink from 2022. ROGER VOSS |
