The 2019 de Cruzeau is impeccable and absolutely delicious. Silky contours and pretty floral accents give this mid-weight Pessac- Léognan its charming, gracious personality. Crushed flowers, red berry fruit, orange peel, dried herbs and gravel lead into the delineated finish. The 2019 has developed into a very pretty, understated wine.

This savory wine with structure and ripe tannins is led by juicy Merlot. Cabernet Sauvignon provides the black-currant fruits and firm texture. This is a well-constructed wine, with a dark, solid aftertaste. Drink from 2025
