In the glass, 2025 impresses with its assumed density and unexpected balance. Far from the heaviness that scorching summers can produce, extraordinary concentration coexists with subtle balances between power and freshness, and a purity of fruit that surpasses even the 2022 vintage.
The wines are dense and structured, with no perceptible vegetal notes on tasting. Cabernet Sauvignon asserts itself, with optimal phenolic ripeness. Cabernet Franc brings freshness, tension, and aromatic complexity, particularly on the Right Bank.
The whites are the big surprise of the year. The dry whites show beautiful balance, offering astonishingly fresh, palatable wines with lovely ample and mellow textures, albeit in very limited quantities.
And the sweet wines? Ideal conditions for botrytis yielded pure, intense juices balanced by a welcome tension, creating brilliant wines that combine aromatic intensity, freshness, and elegance.
2025 asserts itself as a major vintage in Bordeaux, in a style sought after by connoisseurs: freshness and controlled alcohol levels, quality of tannins, and remarkable aging potential. With reduced volumes, synonymous with rarity, and a high level of quality, the 2025 en primeur campaign will be an unmissable opportunity for discerning enthusiasts.
A Bordeaux of conviction, controlled power, and chosen rarity. To add to your cellar without delay.
