  "Offenes Bouquet, reife Waldbeeren, Lakritze, parfümierter Pfeifen - tabak und Sandelholz. Am satten Gaumen mit weicher Textur, stützender Rasse, reifem Tanningerüst und muskulösem Körper. Im gebündelten feinaromatischen Finale Wildkirsche, Graphit und Baumnuss. Genialer Best Buy aus Margaux, den es sich zu suchen lohnt. Kommt auf die Watch-List!"

  "Lush, creamy, silky and already expressive, the wine is full-bodied, soft and creamy with layer after layer of black cherries, plums, currants, licorice, chocolate and a background note of espresso. Labegorce has been on fire since 2015 and I would not be surprised as the wines mature to find this to be the best vintage produced yet! Drink from 2025-2047."

  Decanter
  "Beautiful, perfumed blackcurrants on the nose, smells lovely. Juicy and supple, this has a nice roundness and a fleshy texture in the glass while still being quite focused and streamlined. This has a sleekness to the tannins, the fruit goes in one line from start to finish, so it’s not so expansive or particularly deep but does have a nice style to it. Good acidity, concentration and freshness. Focused, driven, clean with precision. Classic, easy to drink and to recommend."

  "A forward, textured, already delicious wine, the 2020 Château Labégorce offers lots of red and black fruit as well as notes of cedar, smoke tobacco, and chocolate. Based on 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, aged in 40% new barrels, it has perfectly integrated oak, ripe, fine-grained tannins, and outstanding overall balance. Give bottles just a year or three and enjoy over the following 10-15 years or more."

  "A tight, compact Labégorce with blackcurrant, walnut and some graphite. It’s medium-to full-bodied with a solid core of tannins and fruit. Some lead pencil. Very structured for this estate."

  "Cask sample. Modern, ripe fruit on the nose – blackcurrant and blackberry. Airbrushed tannins giving a soft but supple texture, with acidity that freshens the finish. Reasonably nimble on the finish, with persistent fruit and refreshing structure. Very enjoyable."

  The Wine Advocate
  "The 2020 Labégorce has turned out nicely, bursting with aromas of cherries, berries and licorice, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and ample palate. Fleshy and layered, this contemporary-styled Margaux will drink well young."
