Château Poujeaux 2020 is an outstanding wine from the Moulis-en-Médoc appellation, one of the smaller but highly regarded regions on the left bank of Bordeaux. The estate, whose origins date back to the Middle Ages, is known for its consistent quality work and its ability to produce wines with strong character and longevity year after year. The 2020 vintage benefited from a balanced climate with warm days, cool nights and an ideal ripening period, resulting in excellent concentration and elegance in the grapes.

The cuvée of the 2020 vintage consists predominantly of Cabernet Sauvignon (54%), supplemented by Merlot (40%) and Petit Verdot (6%). This classic Bordeaux composition reflects the terroir character of the gravelly soils in Moulis particularly well and ensures complexity and depth.

In the glass, Château Poujeaux 2020 is an intense, deep ruby red. The nose reveals a multi-layered bouquet of dark berries, particularly cassis, black cherry and blackberry, accompanied by floral notes such as violets as well as cedar, tobacco, cocoa and a hint of graphite - typical of the Left Bank style.

On the palate, the wine impresses with density and elegance. The tannins are finely polished, the texture silky, and yet the Poujeaux 2020 has a powerful structure. The fruit aromas are concentrated but not overripe, accompanied by fresh acidity and a beautiful mineral note. The finish is long, harmonious and shows very good ageing potential.

The 2020 vintage is considered by wine critics to be one of the best in the winery's recent history. James Suckling awarded it 93 points and praised its "precise structure, purity and depth". Wine Advocate and Vinous also emphasized the balance of power, freshness and elegance. The wine is already very appealing when young, but has the potential to mature for 15 to 20 years, during which it will continue to grow in complexity.

Château Poujeaux 2020 is a classic but modern Bordeaux with depth, structure and finesse. It combines the typical virtues of a Médoc wine - power, elegance and ageability - while at the same time displaying an accessible fruit and finesse that makes it very attractive even when young. An excellent representative of its terroir with a convincing price-performance ratio.

Product recommendation

Château La Tour Carnet Grand Cru Classé AOC

This Bordeaux from the Haut-Médoc appellation was classified as a 4ème Cru Classé in the 1855 classification. It is a wine for connoisseurs, a head of character with rough edges, which, however, become somewhat smoother with ageing. The quality of the wines from La Tour Carnet has risen extraordinarily since Bernard Magrez took over in 1999.The nose is beautifully fruity with hints of black pepper, blueberries, morello cherries and blackcurrants, as well as mushrooms, leather and prunes. It comes across as quite powerful and juicy, but still shows a rather impetuous power, which will, however, subside. Overall, there is a lot of potential here for a long wine life, with already well-integrated tannins and a long finish.It is recommended to decant the wine, which was vinified from 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 70% Merlot, at least one hour before drinking.

Chateau Labegorce Margaux AOC 2020

Château Labégorce Margaux 2020 is an excellent representative of the renowned Margaux appellation in the heart of the Bordeaux region in south-west France. Château Labégorce, whose roots date back to the 18th century, stands for elegance, sophistication and a deep understanding of traditional Bordeaux winemaking. The 2020 vintage benefited from a particularly favorable climate: a warm, dry summer with occasional rainfall in August ensured optimally ripened grapes with excellent concentration and freshness.The 2020 cuvée is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon (50%) and Merlot (45%), supplemented by smaller proportions of Petit Verdot (2%) and Cabernet Franc (3%) - a classic composition that reflects the character of Margaux wines.In the glass, the wine is a deep, dark ruby red with violet reflections. On the nose, it unfolds a complex interplay of aromas of blackcurrant, ripe plum and cherry, accompanied by fine notes of cedar wood, licorice, tobacco and roasted coffee - a typical expression of the careful barrique maturation.On the palate, Château Labégorce 2020 is powerful and elegant at the same time. The tannins are silky but present, while the acidity structure lends the wine freshness and longevity. The medium to full body is carried by dark fruit, fine spice and mineral depth. The finish is long and balanced, with a hint of graphite and elegant wood notes.Château Labégorce 2020 is considered by many critics to be one of the best vintages of the house in the last decade. Renowned wine critics such as James Suckling awarded it up to 92-93 points, while Wine Advocate and Vinous also emphasized the wine's balance and depth. The excellent ageing potential is particularly praised: the wine is already accessible now, but promises a rewarding development in the bottle over the next 15 to 20 years.

Benjamin de Beauregard Pomerol

Die Familien Moulin und Cathiard haben 2014 Beauregard übernommen und die Qualität nochmals auf ein höheres Niveau gehoben. Dem Benjamin de Beauregard kommt dabei bei der Weinbereitung die selbe Sorgfalt zu, wie dem Grand Vin. Die Ernte wird auf Beauregard vollständig manuell ausgeführt. Der Benjamin wird im Holzfass ausgebaut, mit 30% Neufassanteil. Er ist von rubinroter Farbe. Die Nase umschmeicheln milde Düfte von dunklen Kirschen, Paprika, Karamell, Pflaumen und Kräutern. Am Gaumen überwiegen vor allem die Früchte und die feine Struktur imponiert. Der Abgang ist ebenfalls durch dunkle Früchte charakterisiert. Der Wein zeigt eine schöne Balance und Ausgeglichenheit. Er ist jetzt bereits nach etwas dekantieren trinkreif, bleibt aber durchaus noch 8 Jahren auf dem Höhepunkt. Köstlich in Kombination mit rotem Fleisch, Wildgerichten und Käse.

L'Hospitalet de Gazin Pomerol AOC

The l'Hospitalet de Gazin Pomerol comes from the famous Château Gazin, a neighbor of Pétrus from the Pomerol appellation on the right bank of Bordeaux.The l'Hospitalet de Gazin Pomerol 2021 is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Its grapes were hand-picked and the wine matured for 18 months in oak barrels.What we particularly like about l'Hospitalet is that this wine has great ageing potential, but can also be a lot of fun to drink in its youth after at least an hour of decanting.The l'Hospitalet de Gazin is very well balanced and harmonious. It shows multi-layered aromas, including plums, tobacco, lots of blackberry, blackcurrant, some leather and chocolate; the tannins are present, but already have an excellent smoothness. The finish is long and spicy.Excellent for food pairing with braised and grilled meats, entrecôte, steak and, of course, as a solo wine.

Château Charmail Haut-Médoc AOC 2019

Château Charmail, located in the north of the Médoc, is the neighbor of Sociando-Mallet and has an exceptionally good terroir close to the Gironde. Formerly dormant, this estate woke up a few decades ago and produces fresh and fruity wines that have propelled Château Charmail into the top league of the Left Bank. It is important to bear in mind that the prices for this grape juice are still more than moderate, making Charmail one of the absolute price-performance winners in the whole of Bordeaux.

On the nose, the typically delicate fruit of Château Charmail, with cassis, blackberries, redcurrants and a hint of elderberry.

Everything is very fresh and harmonious, with good structure and race and some residual sweetness, which balances wonderfully with the intense fruit. Although the tannins are present, they are not over-represented, but appear polished and polished. The finish is extremely long.Château Charmail 2019 is a winner in its price category and scores even higher. Excellent for cellaring, it is already ready to drink after 1-2 hours of decanting.Weinwisser: 93-95/100Suckling: 91/100Decanter: 91/100Gabriel: 17/20

On the palate, it is juicy, elegant and lively, with a noticeable tension and plenty of grip that make the wine particularly harmonious. The long-lasting, salty finish makes the origin and special quality of this Riesling unmistakably clear.This Riesling is an excellent accompaniment to light starters, fresh salads, grilled vegetables or fish dishes. Asian dishes with moderate spices also harmonize excellently. Served at 8-10 °C, it reveals its typical minerality, freshness and fine elegance.

Chateau Meyney Saint-Estephe AOC 2019

Château Meyney, gelegen in der nördlichsten der bekanntesten Appellationen des Médoc, in Saint-Estèphe, hat eine erstaunliche Wandlung hinter sich. War dieser Wein schon immer solide und in besseren Jahren sehr gut, produziert Meyney in den letzten Jahren Weine auf außerordentlich hohem Niveau, die sich in der erweiterten Spitzengruppe von Saint-Estèphe etabliert haben. Dabei lässt sich dies (noch) nicht am Preis spüren, so dass man Château Meyney immer ein außergewöhnlich gutes Preis- Leistungsverhältnis bescheinigen muss.2019 ist Teil der Trilogie 2018-2020, mit wunderbaren Bedingungen für den Weinbau am linken Ufer der Gironde. 57% Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Merlot und 16% Petit Verdot stellen die Assemblage dieses Weines, dessen Trauben manuell gelesen werden und sogar im Keller eine optical sorting machine durchlaufen.Der Château Meyney 2019 überzeugt durch ein sehr konzentriertes, dunkles Bouquet. Blaubeeren, Schoko, Cassis, Pflaumen, Vanille, dunkler Tabak, Trüffel, Graphit und Waldboden vermitteln ein eindrucksvolles Aromenbild. Dieser Wein zeigt viel Power und Wucht mit feinen Tanninen und gutem Fett, erschlägt aber den Geniesser nicht mit seiner Kraft. Der Nachhall ist lang und spiegelt die schwarzen Früchte intensiv wieder.
