Tasted April 2024. 100% Merlot this year, which is unusual but speaks to the quality of the fruit from the Les Cruzelles property, this being effect its second wine. 14.3% ABV and 40% new barrels. Very aromatic on the nose with bramble, violet and hints of truffle developing. Voluptuous, smooth and mouth-coating tannins and texture, with dry, woody, savoury spice on the palate. Generous and open now, with the density to age.

The 2023 La Chenade, 100% Merlot this year, opens with gorgeous aromatics. Medium in body and vibrant, with terrific energy, the 2023 is all class. Cedar, tobacco and dried herbs add an attractive savory/floral character, while bright acids that pull it all together on the close. This is beautifully done.
La Chenade has depth and layering with lots going on. Crunchy blackberry and raspberry fruit character and round tannins. 100% merlot. Better than 2022.
The 2023 La Chenade shows a dark, somber profile, evoking aromas of gentian, licorice, mulberries and violet. Medium-bodied with a layered and rich palate, it’s creamy and enrobing with velvety tannins and a long, firm finish. It was made entirely from Merlot grapes that are matured in new oak barrels, comprising 40% of the total.
