2019 Chateau d'Aiguilhe Cotes de Castillon [Future Arrival]

Pro Reviews

Wine Advocate (WA)

The 2019 d’Aiguilhe sports a very deep garnet-purple color, springing from the glass with vivacious scents of fresh blueberries, kirsch and ripe blackberries plus wafts of underbrush, wilted roses, chalk dust and chocolate-covered cherries with a hint of lavender. The medium-bodied palate has an electric line of freshness cutting through the perfumed black fruits, textured by finely grained, soft tannins, finishing with a skip in its step. – Lisa Perrotti-Brown, June 18, 2020

James Suckling (JS)

I like the blue fruit to this with violet and wet-earth undertones to the currants. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins and a fruity finish. – June 3, 2020

Vinous Media (VM)

The 2019 d’Aiguilhe is classy and understated to the core. Floral and citrus notes perk up the red berry fruit nicely, adding a good bit of freshness as well as verve. Quite surprisingly for the year, d’Aiguilhe is pretty tightly wound and in no mood to show all of its cards. Even so, there is good depth and plenty of promise. – Antonio Galloni – 18/06/2020
