91-93/100Lisa Perrotti-Brown,The Wine Independent

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2023 Monbousquet shoots from the glass with vibrant scents of fresh blackcurrants and Bing cherries plus hints of pencil lead, underbrush, and wild sage. The medium-bodied palate delivers lightly chewy tannins and just enough freshness to support the delicate black fruit layers, finishing long and savory. The blend is 65% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon.

89/100Jane Anson,Inside Bordeaux

Bitter black chocolate on the opening beats, along with espresso and rosemary. There are juicy ruby fruits alongside, and estate signature. Gravelley soils with sandy and sandy clay, most impacted by the heat spikes of the vintage of all the Pavie wines this year, harvest september 13 to 23. 50% new oak, with the rest on one year.

The 2023 Monbousquet is packed with blue/purplish fruit, spice, lavender, mocha and gravel notes. The 2023 is an especially serious Monbousquet with bright acids and vibrant tannins that lend notable energy throughout. This is another fine showing from the Perse family.
