Chateau Les Cruzelles 2013

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2013 Les Cruzelles has an expressive, open and generous bouquet, with vivacious red cherries and mulberry-scented bouquet that has impressive intensity given the vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, more black rather than red fruit, good mineralité and tension, leading to the refined, saline finish that I remarked upon when I tasted this from barrel. It outperforms many other Right Bank 2013s with loftier reputations."

JAMES SUCKLING: "This is really excellent for the vintage with berry and shaved chocolate character. Medium to full body, layered and delicious. Thoroughly enjoyable. Drink now."
