Neal Martin
The 2015 Labegorce is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 4% Petit Verdot that was picked between 15 September and 20 October. Cropped at 38 hl/ha and matured in 45% new oak, it has a sumptuous bouquet with macerated black cherries, wild strawberry and a touch of fresh prune. The palate is well balanced and much more reserved than the aromatics: crisp and firm tannin, nicely focused with a pleasing salinity on the structured finish that suggest that this Labegorce will reward long-term ageing. 91-93 points
Steven Spurrier
Big broad fruit and lots of structure and depth. Quite a chunky Labégorce with a good future. 90 points

Not much on the nose but very sweet on the palate. An attempt at flattery? Pretty drying tannins on the end. 16.5 points
