Château Les Grands Chênes Médoc 2020 i trækasse

James Suckling

A fresh and focused 2020 with blackcurrants, bark and walnut aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with very well integrated tannins and a firm and bright finish.

Raffaele Vecchione WinesCritic.com

Elegant and pronounced, delicately alternating notes of strawberries, red prunes, cherries, raspberries and pink grapefruit juice. Medium bodied, lightly extracted tannins and a compact finish which needs time to come out.

Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

Deeply colored, the wine opens with dark, red and black fruit, licorice, espresso bean, smoke, flower and herb scents. Lush, round, sweet, and supple on the palate, the wine is packed with sweet, ripe, dark red fruits leaving you with a supple-textured finish. This is one of the finest vintages of Les Grands Chenes. Drink from 2023-2040.

Antonio Galloni

The 2020 Les Grands Chênes is terrific, just as it was en primeur. Blackberry jam, gravel, incense, tobacco, scorched earth and espresso saturate the palate with remarkable depth. This deep, flavorful Médoc is a tremendous effort from Bernard Magrez and his team. My only complaint is the absurdly heavy bottle, which is completely out of touch with today's world.

Falstaff

Deep dark ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, faint brightening on rim. Black wild berry fruit underlaid with fine fine wood savouriness, floral nuances, a hint of liquorice and cassis. Juicy, ripe sweet cherry, freshly structured, ripe tannins, lemony-mineral on the aftertaste.

Decanter

Inky in colour with a firm structure, really standing to attention with the tingle of chewy muscular tannins at the close of play. You're getting well-ripened blackberry and blackcurrant fruits in this, laden with liquorice, cocoa bean and smoke. September 15 to October 1 for the harvest.

Andreas Larsson, Tasted

Modern nose of ripe dark fruit, crushed berries, cassis, roasted coffee, some oak notes with a dense structure, fine roundness, already well integrated oak and a long fleshy finish.
