Château Sansonnet 2013 reçoit 90 points chez les 2 dégustateurs

Wine Spectator : "Not shy, with extracted layers of fig, raspberry and blackberry confiture, supported by polished tannins and picking up alluring bittersweet cocoa and tobacco notes on the loam-edged finish. An impressive effort for the vintage. Best from 2018 through 2023. 667 cases made."JM

JamesSuckling.com :"Attractive aromas of tea leaf, blueberry, flower and blackberry. Full body, firm and chewy tannins and a pretty freshness of citrus rind and stone. Very well done for the vintage. Drink now or hold." JS

Et pour Château Fleur Cardinale :

Wine Spectator 90 points : "Stylish and ripe, with flattering raspberry and plum sauce flavors that glide along, enhanced by lively licorice and fruitcake notes. A touch of bramble adds length to the finish. Nicely done. Best from 2017 through 2023. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 2,733 cases made." JM

JamesSuckling.com 91 points : "Blueberry, blackberry and wet earth. Some dried flowers. Full to medium body, firm and chewy tannins yet polished and fresh. Refined polish to this. Drink in 2018." JS
