2016 La Croix du Casse

Fabulous aromas of subtle, ripe fruit with hazelnut and coffee undertones. Full-bodied, round and very silky with beautiful fruit and a gorgeous finish. Very sexy and exotic. Find this. Try after 2022.James Suckling | 94 JSA nine-hectare estate located in the south of the Pomerol appellation, on sand/gravel soils with additional iron deposits. Croix du Casse produces plummy, voluptuous wines and in 2016 has added freshness and elegance to the soft, weighty palate. Drinking Window 2021 - 2035.Decanter | 91 DECFeatures a mix of juicy plum and blackberry compote flavors, with woodsy tea, cedar and apple notes and a flash of licorice snap on the finish. Ends with an echo of slightly firm balsam, which is likely to outlast the fruit in the long run. Best from 2022 through 2032. 3,000 cases made.Wine Spectator | 90 WS

2019 La Croix du Casse

Orange-peel, dark-berry and violet character. Medium to full body with layers of fine, velvety tannins and a long, intense finish. Needs time to come together, but beautiful even now. 85% merlot and 15% cabernet franc. Try after 2025.James Suckling | 94 JSSpiced red and black fruits, new leather, graphite, and floral notes all emerge from the 2019 Château La Croix Du Casse. This medium to full-bodied Pomerol has terrific purity of fruit, light tannins, good overall balance, and outstanding length. It’s going to drink well for 10-12 years.Jeb Dunnuck | 89-91 JDA lovely rich and supple Pomerol that manages to capture plenty of the essence of the appellation but still be an early to medium term drinker with welcoming tannins and plenty of supple but gourmet textured berry fruits - blackberry and black cherry are dominant, with chocolate shavings at every step. Impressive from the Philippe Castéja stable of wines. Drinking Window 2023 - 2033.Decanter | 90 DEC

2020 La Croix du Casse

Gorgeous boysenberry and blackberry aromas and flavors. It’s full-bodied yet very tight and poised, with firm and racy tannins and a fresh finish. Orange peel and pure ripe fruit. Just right. 94% merlot and 6% cabernet franc. Drink or hold.James Suckling | 95 JSThe 2020 La Croix du Casse is ripe and generous on the nose, presenting a mixture of blackberry and blueberry fruit, quite high-toned and floral. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins and a fine bead of acidity, well balanced and displaying more mineralité on the finish than I have noticed in recent vintages. Classic in style, this should drink well for 15–20 years.Vinous Media | 89-91 VMRipe and super perfumed, you can smell the warmth of the vintage on the nose, dark plum, fig, pomegranate, some molasses, baked patisserie but soft flecks of florality too. Plump, ripe and round, tannins are chewy and chunky, mouth coating and nicely weighted but the fruit flavours are a bit strict and severe - a touch astringent and dry on the mid-palate, the salinity and minerality coming through strongly with pencil lead and liquorice shutting down some of the fruit and the oak restricting the palate somewhat. It’s all very overt at the moment but the tannins are good and this well settle. Power over poise, muscular, confident and bold. Ageing 16 months in barrels, 55% new oak.Decanter | 90 DEC
