Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2022 Larmande prances out with fragrant notions of rose hip tea, juicy black plums, and kirsch, giving way to wafts of cinnamon toast and Sichuan pepper. The medium to full-bodied palate is soft and juicy with perfumed red and black fruit preserves and a long, fragrant finish. Nicely done! - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Wine Independent
This estate has been routinely delivering excellent quality, and the 2022 Larmande is no exception, yet it still remains somewhat under the radar. Offering up aromas of sweet wild berries, plums, licorice and rose petals, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, with a velvety attack that segues into a concentrated, vibrant core of fruit. It is sure to number among the best buys of the 2022 en primeur campaign. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate
Linear and fine with chewy tannins that are polished and poised. It’s medium-bodied with blackberries, dark chocolate and crushed stone - James Suckling
Coming from vines near Soutard and composed of 79% Merlot, 19% Cabernet Franc, and the balance Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2022 Château Larmande has a nicely balanced, medium to full-bodied, concentrated style revealing ample red and black fruits, some classic notes of tobacco, spring flowers, and iron, finely polished tannins, and a great finish. - Jeb Dunnuck
