2022 Madame de Beaucaillou Haut Medoc

Intense and deeply colored, with lots of violets, fresh blue fruit, blackberries and minerals. Really flavorful, with precise tannins and lovely firmness without chewiness. Long and concentrated but fresh and energetic. 66% merlot, 23% cabernet sauvignon and 11% petit verdot. Drink from 2028. ~93 James Suckling

A blend of a number of Haut-Médoc estates owned by the Borie family, the wine is spicy, ripe with firm tannins wrapped inside a comfortable richness. At this stage, the wood is showing of course, but so is the ripe black fruit. ~93 Wine Enthusiast

Dark black fruits and flowers shine in the perfume. The palate shows off its sweet, black cherries, blackberries, and chocolate with just a swirl. Drink this on release, or age it for more complexity. If I owned it, I would be popping a cork on release. The wine blends 66% Merlot, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Petit Verdot. 14.5% ABV. Drink from 2025-2037. ~92 The Wine Cellar Insider

Deep dark ruby garnet colour with opaque core and purple reflections, delicate brightening on the rim. Black cherries, subtle notes of blackberries, delicate floral nuances, a touch of orange zest. Juicy, elegant, ripe plums, vivid tannins, mineral and salty finish, chocolatey aftertaste. ~92 Falstaff

This is a blend of 23% Cabernet Sauvignon, 66% Merlot, and 11% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple in color, it storms out of the glass with notes of baked plums, blackberry pie, and Indian spices with hints of sautéed herbs and espresso. The full-bodied palate is rich and chewy with loads of savory nuances and a peppery kick to the finish. ~91 The Wine Palate

The 2022 Madame De Beaucaillou (66% Merlot, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 11% Petit Verdot) is brilliant, with a dense ruby/plum hue as well as powerful aromatics of crème de cassis, ripe black cherries, spicy wood, and smoky tobacco. This rich, medium to full-bodied, layered, concentrated beauty way over-delivers. ~91 Jeb Dunnuck

From the winemaking team at Chateau Ducru Beaucaillou, this wine’s full title is Madame de Beaucaillou, Hommage à Madame Eugène Borie (owner Bruno Borie’s mother), and is drawn from 55ha across the appellation, 35ha of Listrac, 11ha of Cussac Fort Medoc and the rest Moulis, all declassified into Haut-Médoc. It’s a success in 2022, and you’ll see some of the glamour of the mother ship Ducru although expect the full concentration of the year. Plenty of Left Bank signature here, black fruits riven through the spice notes. 29hl/h yields. ~90 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux
