Tasting Notes and Scores

93 JS

Very aromatic with blueberry, mineral and dried mint. Full body, with super velvety texture with wonderful fruit and a balanced finish. Beautiful tannins. So wonderful to taste now but another three or four years will be better. Try in 2016.
-www.jamessuckling.com, 'Tasting Report: 2010's Greatness Across The Board in Bordeaux', 17 Feb 2013

(92-93 pts)
Best ever from here with a blackberry and licorice. Full and velvety with loads going on. Mega.

Tasted at the UGC tasting in London. The Labégorce is ripe and generous on the voluptuous nose that is still partying like its 2009. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe, grippy tannins. There is plenty of tarry fruit that belie what is a firm backbone, whilst the finish demonstrates firm grip and persistency. Excellent. Tasted November 2012.

(90-92 pts)
The Labegorce 2010 has a ripe, opulent bouquet of macerated dark cherries, cassis and boysenberry with moderate definition. The palate is medium-bodied with silky smooth tannins, good acidity and tension towards the finish with dark cherry, cedar and blueberry. Nice focus and poise. Excellent. Tasted April 2011.

A blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, this wine exhibits sweet tannin, medium body and blue and black fruits intermixed with underbrush, licorice, cedar and spice box in a medium-bodied, elegant style with moderate tannin. Forget it for several years and Drink it over the following decade. Drink: 2013 - 2023

I had hoped this wine would show slightly better, as things are clearly on the upswing at this large estate in the Margaux appellation. (The property includes the vineyards of the now-defunct Labegorce-Zede, which have been incorporated into Labegorce.)
-Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #205 Feb 2013

(88-90 pts)
2010: This is the debut vintage for consultant Claude Gros and the quality is the finest I have ever tasted from this estate. (Beginning in 2009, the neighboring estate of Labegorce Zede was incorporated into Labegorce.) Made from a blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot that hit 14% natural alcohol, this sleeper of the vintage reveals a dense purple color in addition to abundant notes of charcoal, spring flowers, black currants and subtle smoky barrique in the background. Medium to full-bodied and ripe with sweet tannin, this beauty should drink nicely for a decade or more.
