One of the best wines ever produced at this address, the 2022 Grand Village reveals a dense, bright and complex bouquet of cassis, mulberries, flowers and sweet berries, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and round palate with a seamless texture framed by velvety tannins, concluding with a penetrating, ethereal finish. This blend of blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc benefits from the sort of careful winemaking usually reserved for cru classé wines. - YC, Wine Advocate

Sporting a deep purple/plum hue, the 2022 Grand Village (Lafleur) offers up a rocking bouquet of ripe black cherries and blackberry-like fruits as well as some truffly earth, licorice, and chalky minerality. It's a powerful, concentrated, medium to full-bodied, broad, and layered Grand Village that offers pleasure today yet is going to benefit from at least 4-6 years of bottle age and have 20+ years of overall longevity. The tannins are particularly velvety, and it has a Saint-Emilion-like sense of limestone minerality. -Jeb Dunnuck 

Deep ruby, opaque core, purple reflections, discreet brightening on the rim. Black berryish fruit, nuances of ripe cherries and blackberries, inviting, fine spice in the underlay. Juicy, elegant, sweet plum fruit, fine structure, mineral and salty. Substantial, silky and persistent, very approachable. - Falstaff

Beautiful blue fruit and chocolate here. Medium- to full-bodied. The tannins are firm and velvety with lots of spice, seashell and iodine notes. Lots of white pepper and sea salt. Fresh. 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc. -James Suckling

Liquorice and salty cola on the nose, with cool blue fruits and a mineral edge. Ripe and intense with a shot of acidity that keeps the powerful fruit in check. Laser-sharp tannins provide structure without heaviness, keeping the texture streamlined and sleek. A cool blueberry and dried mint freshness lingers, while a chalky, powdery feel emerges after a few minutes. The finish is a little constricted but retains energy, salinity, and juicy appeal. Give it air, and it will soften beautifully. A lot of wine for the price. - Georgina Hindle, Decanter

The 2022 Grand Village Rouge is plump, juicy and quite extroverted in its rst impression. But that is the rst impression only. Aromatics and underlying structure emerge with a bit of air, signaling a complex, dynamic wine that punches well above its weight. The blend is 80% Merlot and 20% Bouchet (Cabernet Franc), with the Bouchet really driving the blend. Superb. -Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

Earthy with softly smoked earth, muscular tannins, cherry pit, raspberry, peony and salted cracker finish. They are increasing the massal selection from Lafleur vine stock in this wine for the Bouchet (Cabernet Franc), which helps give this saline kick on the finish. Harvest September 9 to 23. 30% new oak, 10ha vineyard after restructuring. -Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux

A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Bouchet (Cabernet Franc), the 2022 Grand Village has a deep garnet-purple color. It flies out of the glass with vibrant scents of black and red cherries, black raspberries, unsmoked cigars, and fallen leaves, plus touches of lavender and black pepper.- Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Independent

Deep crimson hue. Juicy but structured, the tannins crunchy, the quality impressive at this level. Ripe but fresh with red-fruit and spice notes. Don’t think of it as a generic Bordeaux.-James Lawther MW, Jancis Robinson
