Chateau Mangot Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classe 2022 ØKO

James Suckling

Quite a fresh, mineral and lively St.-Emilion that hooks me with garden herbs, brambleberries and an engaging twist of white pepper. Lots of wet stones and flowers as well. Very structured and compact, this has vibrating, chalky tannins and a broad, lengthy finish. Tight and dense, but freshness and balance are in check. Drink from 2027.

Wine Advocate

Aromas of sweet cherries, petals and licorice introduce the 2022 Château Mangot, a medium to full-bodied, dense and layered wine that's suave and multidimensional, its concentrated core of lively fruit built around sweet, powdery tannins. It's the finest Mangot I've tasted to date, and a decade from now, readers will have a lot of fun including this in blind tastings against more famous names.

Decanter

Perfumed and floral on the nose, lovely intensity. Juicy and supple, a little sombre, lacking a touch of vibrancy, but the tannins are so well worked, clean, linear, straight, gorgeous salty edges give the freshness and tension. Really well delivered, just missing an extra punch. But nice frame and elegance. Liquorice and slate on the finish.

The Wine Cellar Insider - Jeff Leve

"Elegant, soft, fresh, and deep, the wine quickly focuses you on its layers of ripe, sweet, fresh, dark, red pit fruits. The long, powerful, mineral-edged finish, with its layers of plums, cherries and salt, sticks with you. Drink from 2025-2042."

Robert Parker

A wine that gets my nod as this dynamic estate's finest to date is the 2022 Mangot, a medium to full-bodied, ample and layered wine evocative of cherries, dark berries, licorice and rose petals. Deep, concentrated and fleshy, with a vibrant core of fruit and a long, mouthwatering finish, this seamless, complete Saint-Émilion is sure to be one of the best purchases of the en primeur campaign.
