I loved the 2021 Château Labégorce and I'd certainly be a happy buyer. Red and black fruits, graphite, tobacco, and some freshly sharpened pencil-like notes all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied, with a supple, layered, elegant mouthfeel, fine tannins, and outstanding length. Based on 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc, aged in 35% new oak, it will drink nicely for a solid 10-15 years.

The 2021 Labégorce is a powerful, driving wine. It is not exactly subtle, but it definitely packs a good punch. Black cherry, gravel, incense, spice, licorice and scorched earth abound. This is a decidedly savory/earthy Margaux, with burly contours and a few rough edges, but overall it’s enjoyable. –Antonio Galloni

A focused and fresh red with black currants, black plums, walnuts and tea leaves on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity, a fresh minerality and medium-firm tannins.

Plump and slightly full expression for the vintage, the ageing have added some fat to the tannins - almost chewy with fresh acidity - strawberry and red cherry flavours and prominent minerality. The frame is taking over some of the fruity fun, but this is well presented with some character and liveliness. Great acidity and bounce to the palate. Not weighty as such and the fruit doesn't quite last to the finish with a cola and liquorice end but this is well worked. I like it. Tasty and really well delivered.
