Chateau d'Agassac 2020 / 750 ml.

Item#: 99212

WE9393 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 1/1/2021
Barrel Sample. Fresh and with great black currant flavors, the wine is juicy and perfumed. Its potential is excellent, the tannins under all this fruitiness pointing the way to some fine aging. (Roger Voss)
JS92+92–93 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Thursday, May 27, 2021
Lots of blackberry, walnut, wet-earth and fresh-mushroom aromas and flavors. Full-bodied and layered. Very flavorful. Excellent.
RP9090 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 31st Oct 2022
The just-bottled 2020 D’Agassac has turned out very nicely, offering up aromas of sweet dark berries, cherries, loamy soil and spices. Medium-bodied, lively and nicely concentrated, with impressive depth and powdery structuring tannins that assert themselves on the finish, this is a strong effort. (William Kelley)

Where It's From

Region / Bordeaux

View more wines from Bordeaux

Bordeaux is known the world over for its exceptional wines, particularly red blends made with Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes, among others. These Cabernets aren't typically the full-bodied Cabs you get from California, but rather medium-bodied wines that emanate elegance and sophistication.

You'll also find some refreshing Bordeaux whites and, of course, Bordeaux's famous dessert wine, Sauternes.

Country / France

View more wines from France

The French did not invent winemaking. They simply perfected it. For centuries, France has been producing wines that inspire poetry, awe, and wonder; wines that blur the lines between nature, craftsmanship, cuisine and art. These are the wines that inspired cultures around the globe to follow in France’s footsteps, planting Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, Grenache, Merlot, Semillon and more.

Yet as often as they are emulated, the magic of their terroirs can never be duplicated. You may taste Cabernet from around the world, but perhaps none as elegant and regal as Bordeaux. You may try Pinot Noir or Chardonnay from various climates, but none with the earth-bound soul and ethereal reach of Burgundy.

Dark fruits with spiced chocolate, licorice, black olives and wet earth. Full-bodied with a nice grip of ripe, juicy tannins and a velvety texture. Succulent and vivid yet firm and structured. Polished finish with notes of crushed stones. Try from 2025.
WE92+92–94 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 1/1/2021
Barrel Sample. This wine shows the structure that will stand it in good stead as it develops made from 60-year-old Cabernet Sauvignon vines. Its dark tannins march with the developing black currant fruits. The wine will certainly age well. (Roger Voss)
SP9292 pts. - Wine Spectator - Web only – 2022
Round, ripe and polished in feel, with an inviting core of warmed cassis and plum puree laced with light iron, red tea and sanguine notes. Packs judicious toast, which lets the fruit and savory notes play out nicely. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2034. 1,250 cases made, 300 cases imported.

RP9494 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 6th Apr 2023
The most underrated wine in the Lafite stable these days has put in another strong performance with the 2020 Duhart-Milon, as this somewhat cooler, later-ripening site is well adapted to warmer vintages. Unfurling to reveal aromas of cassis, plums, cigar wrapper, loamy soil and violets, it’s medium to full-bodied, broad and layered, with polished tannins, terrific depth at the core and a long, sapid finish.

A particularly successful effort, the 2020 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion opens in the glass with aromas of dark berries, cassis, burning embers and spices. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and concentrated, it’s layered and integrated, with a fleshy core, powdery structuring tannins and good tension. (William Kelley)

Chateau Poujeaux 2020 / 750 ml.

2020 / 750 ml.

Item #: 702

JS9393 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Sunday, May 14, 2023
This has a dusty character with black cherries and currants, as well as hints of cocoa, wet earth and raw mushrooms. Medium- to full-bodied with ripe, plush tannins that continue to build up throughout the deep, dark-fruited palate. It’s a muscular Poujeaux with a spicy and chocolatey finish. Try after 2026. (James Suckling)
RP91+91+ pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 6th Apr 2023
The 2020 Poujeaux is a strong follow-up to the excellent 2019. Wafting from the glass with aromas of cherries, minty blackberries, pencil shavings and licorice, it’s medium to full-bodied, deep and lively, with excellent concentration, refined tannins and a penetrating finish. A touch more tightly wound out of the gates than the 2019, it will reward a few years’ patience with a broad drinking window. (William Kelley)
JD9090 pts. - Jeb Dunnuck - 3/29/2023
Also solid, the 2020 Château Poujeaux exhibits a deeper ruby/purple hue to go with impressive aromatics of ripe black cherries, cedary herbs, and leather. These carry to a medium-bodied, nicely textured Moulis that has the ripe, yet firmer tannins of the vintage. Drink bottles any time over the coming decade or more. (Jeb Dunnuck)

The 2020 Beaumont is fabulous in the way it marries power and finesse. Crushed red berry fruit, charcoal, dried flowers, spice and tobacco lend notable complexity. The 2020 has lost some of its youthful fruitiness, but none of its charm or pedigree. This is beautifully done. (Antonio Galloni)
JS9292 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Sunday, May 14, 2023
Aromas of ripe berries, licorice, cloves and nut shell with some earthy undertones. Medium body. It’s round and supple on the palate with dusty tannins and a dry, velvety finish. Try from 2025. (James Suckling)
JD9191 pts. - Jeb Dunnuck - 3/29/2023
The 2020 Château Beaumont is rock solid, with a great nose of ripe red and black fruits, spicy oak, and spring flowers. Medium-bodied, It has the pure, focused, structured style of the vintage as well as a great mid-palate and the balance to evolve for 10–12 years or more. (Jeb Dunnuck)
