2022
Château Boutisse  (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
93
Even better in the bottle than it was from the barrel, the wine exudes its aromatic profile with ease, deftly showing off its espresso, incense, flowers, chocolate, and plums. The palate is even better due to its luscious core of creamy black cherries, spice, and chocolate. The long, fruit-packed finish wraps up everything nicely. The wine blends 82% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 3% Carmenere, and 2% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2025-2040.

Even better in the bottle than it was in barrel, the wine exudes smoke, licorice, cocoa, plums and cherries in the nose. On the palate, the wine is lush, soft, and silky with layers of lusciously-textured plums that linger. It is easy to see why they were recently reclassified as a Grand Cru Classe. Drink from 2024-2042.

Licorice, black plums, oak, roasted cherries and bitter chocolate standout on the nose. Forward, lush, round and polished, the sweetness, freshness, soft textures and ripe fruits on the palate and finish are all working together perfectly this year. 91-93 Pts

Dark, smoky red fruits with a touch of cocoa in the nose. The wine is medium-bodied, with a medicinal cherry note before you get to the round, oaky finish. This could get better if everything better integrates as it matures. 87-89 Pts

Opulent, rich, ripe, fruity and just a blast to drink thanks to all the sweet, cherries and plums. There is a good sense of purity in the fruit, length and complexity. This is one of the better values in Saint Emilion today!

This is a hit. The wine has fatness, it is also richly textured and fruity. But it also shows minerality, complexity, concentration and freshness, which makes all that ripe fruit taste as good as it feels. This is one of the better values in Saint Emilion today!

Fully ready to go as it already delivers its ample, ripe, round, black cherry and plummy core of fruit that is made even better with its slight spicy accent and chalky, oceanic finish. Drink from 2023-2030.
