A wine that gets my nod as this dynamic estate's finest to date is the 2022 Mangot, a medium to full-bodied, ample and layered wine evocative of cherries, dark berries, licorice and rose petals. Deep, concentrated and fleshy, with a vibrant core of fruit and a long, mouthwatering finish, this seamless, complete Saint-Émilion is sure to be one of the best purchases of the en primeur campaign.

Quite a fresh, mineral and lively Saint-Émilion that hooks me with garden herbs, brambleberries and an engaging twist of white pepper. Lots of wet stones and flowers as well. Very structured and compact, this has vibrating, chalky tannins and a broad, lengthy finish. Tight and dense, but freshness and balance are in check.
Falstaff 95 points
Deep dark ruby garnet, purple reflections, DELICATE rim brightening. Delicate ripe cherry fruit underlay with nougat, hints of plums and liquorice, fresh orange zest, inviting bouquet. Complex, juicy and savoury, red cherries, pleasant sweetness, ripe tannins, good freshness, mineral and long lasting, secure certain ageing potential.
