Château Berliquet Saint-Emilion AOP Grand Cru Classé

Lots of dark and crushed stones with blackberries and black olives. Dark earth. Full-bodied and more concentrated with very intense fruit and chewy tannins. Velvety and slightly rough, but all there.James Suckling 93-94 (jamessuckling.com) The 2022 Berliquet is brilliant, bursting with aromas of plums, wild berries and lilac, followed by a medium to full-bodied, concentrated and vibrant palate that's deep and mineral. It's likely to be another of the vintage's more attractive en primeur proportions. This estate just goes from strength to strength—and that's before its new winery has been constructed! One of the most significant changes has been opting to retain higher canopies, which means that the fruiting zone of rows planted along the slope are now shaded, preserving freshness. William Kelley 94-95 (robertparker.com) Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe. zarte Randaufhellung. Einladende Kirschfrucht, feine Edelholzwürze, Orangenzesten, mineralischer Touch. Saftig, reife Herzkirschen auch am Gaumen, gute Frische, zeigt Spannung und Länge, animierender Stil. falstaff 94 (falstaff.com) Very deep crimson. Rich, sweet and burly compared with the Canon but still with purity. Such polish! Clean and fresh. Sleekissimo. Jancis Robinson 17 (jancisrobinson.com)
