Tasting notes
The 2022 Peyrabon offers a slightly more floral bouquet than its peers, with lush black cherry and boysenberry fruit aromas in a generous style. The medium-bodied palate has a sweet entry and is fleshy and savory, with a touch of spice and clove on the finish. I actually prefer the aromatics to the palate at the moment.

Cru bourgeois supérieur. 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot, on sandy gravels over clay subsoil. Yield 19.9 hl/ha. Aged in barrels (30% new wood) for 14 months. Smells like real wine with some interest! Already fun to drink with the tannin well sublimated. VGV (JR)
Rich plum in colour, with the right kind of austerity to the tannic architecture that suggests it has plenty of ageing ability. Good balance, cassis, spice box, cigar, tobacco leaf, firm tannins, impressive. On the border of Pauillac, owned by the Casteja family of Borie Manoux since September 2022, making them responsible for the vinification and ageing of this 2022 vintage. 30% new oak, sandy gravel over clay, 19.9hl/h yield. Director Xavier Michelet, Axel Marchal consultant. One point upscore since En Primeur.
