Château Picque Caillou 2019

A very complex and intense nose, with magnificent fruit, exquisite minerality and perfectly mastered oak. The palate is very dense and warm, with fruit, richness and a lovely, lingering finish. Plenty of potential. Great energy.

Delivers a light grilled savory edge that adds energy to the mix of steeped red currant and blackberry fruit, ending with a sanguine echo on the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2028. 5,000 cases made, 1,000 cases imported.

Smooth and satisfying, this starts off well and has a lovely texture, silky yet also quite dense, giving you concentration of flavours but also a vertical depth. It's not the most powerful or complex, but it's well delivered with a fresh fruity lift and lots of energy. It still feels stylish with some liquorice and cinnamon spice as well as fig and plum fruit, fresh mint leaf edges and a slight orange peel bitterness on the finish. It's flavourful but not very finessed and stops a little short. Needs a bit longer.

Delicious mix of blackcurrants, cherries and chocolate with hints of graphite and smoked meat. Tight, medium body and layers of polished tannins. It’s round, creamy and long-lasting with a crushed-rock note at the end. Try from 2025.

Dark, intense, purple color. Very aromatic, delicate nose with ripe, spicy fruit. On the palate, the body is supple, yet the flavor is rather deep. Silky finish of normal length.

Ripe, smoothly textured with some firm black fruits, this wine is both rich and firm. It is young, with vibrant fruitiness and balancing acidity showing the wine's potential. Drink from 2026,
