  • Goedhuis, April 2010, Score: 90-92

    Very open blackberry fruit aroma with gentle hints of violets. This is a rich and very pleasingly structured Cru Bourgeois, with an appealing density of fruit. A naturally big wine with a lovely sweet finish.

  • Robert Parker, February 2012, Score: 90

    This is another over-achieving estate that tends to produce wines with lots of intensity and structure. This wine certainly has the formidable intensity one expects from Charmail, but the tannins are silky smooth and the result is the sexiest Charmail to date. An opulent, even voluptuously textured wine, full-bodied and dense purple in color, it is a seductive blend of 47% Merlot, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered and came in with natural alcohols of 14%. The low acidity, plush fruit and silky tannins all suggest drinking this over the next decade. It is another sleeper of the vintage, of which there is nearly an endless supply in this great year. Drink: 2012 - 2022

  • Robert Parker, April 2010, Score: 89-91

    This classic over-performer has turned out another super-attractive, supple-textured, dark ruby/purple-colored wine displaying notes of flowers, licorice, spice, and background oak. It should drink nicely for a decade or more. Drink: 2010 - 2020

  • Decanter, April 2010, Score: 16

    Dense red, good fleshy blackcurrant fruit, good tannins, very well made. Drink 2013-18.

  • Jancis Robinson, April 2010, Score: 16.5+

    Blackish. Very heady and rich and charming on the nose. Super-ripe. Sweet start and nice completeness. Good refreshing savoury finish. Neat and well done.

  • Wine Spectator, April 2010, Score: 91-94

    Tar, blueberry and currant aromas follow through to a full body, with soft, chewy tannins and a long finish. Big and juicy.

Region

Haut-Médoc

The Haut-Médoc is an appellation within the Médoc that stretches along the left bank of the Gironde from Blanquefort in the south to the north of Bordeaux. The region encompasses the more famous communes of St-Estèphe, Pauillac, St-Julien and Margaux. Following the 1855 classification many of its most famous estates were classified and scored as first, second, third, fourth or fifth growths. This was based on their social and commercial positions at the time. Most of these classed growths use the village appellation name, such as Pauillac. However five of these classed growths fell outside a village appellation so take the name Haut-Médoc. Many of the vineyards which are classified as Haut-Médoc may actually also be referred to as Cru Bourgeois wines. These wines have lower permitted yields and so offer great value for money.
