critic reviews
Deep garnet-purple colored. Fresh raspberries and cranberries open out to an undercurrent of wet slate and dried herbs. The light-bodied palate is a touch lean yet refreshing with a savory finish.
The 2024 Labégorce has a nicely poised bouquet with crushed violet-tinged black fruit. The oak is nicely integrated in this Labégorce, a little "fuller" than its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. The 2024's fine backbone lends satisfying grip and weight, even if it doesn't quite have the complexity of the best recent vintages. It might well improve by the time of bottling.
Slate, liquorice, rose bud, cassis, this is really joyful and great quality, powerful even thought the fruits are slim and savoury. Nathalie Perrodo owner. 30% new oak. 3.60 pH. Harvest 23 September to 10 October. The blend given is as planted in the vineyard, not specific to the vintage.
