Château Petit-Freylon ‘Cuvée Sarah’ Bordeaux Supérieur 2023
93/100 MainstreeT Score “The aromas hit your nose with ripe blackberry and plum at the forefront, followed by hints of dusty spice, cedar, and a touch of cocoa. A subtle earthy undertone-reminiscent of pencil lead and forest floor-emerges as it opens in the glass. On the palate it opens with vibrant dark cherry and cassis flavors, transitioning to a mid-palate enriched by notes of licorice, sweet vanilla and cigar box. Medium-full, well balanced, with structured, fine-grained tannins. The Cabernet provides a firm structural backbone, while the Merlot softens the mid-palate with lush berry fruit. The finish is moderately long, with lingering dark fruit and a dry, spice-dusted close” – we may have underrated this gem!! A simply delicious & CRAZY good value from Bordeaux and a MUST for any wine lover!!
A little about the winery – Château Petit-Freylon is situated in the small Aquitaine village of Saint-Genis-du-Bois, home to fewer than 100 residents. The estate remained in the Lagrange family for generations until 2011, when it was acquired by La Société PESA. Since then, the new owners have made significant investments in the château’s winemaking facilities, including new tanks, barrels, and thermo-vinification systems. This dedication to quality has earned the wines numerous awards at prestigious competitions, such as the Concours Agricole in Paris and the Concours de Bordeaux.
This is yet another exceptional value—perfect for everyday enjoyment, holiday entertaining, or gift giving. A well-balanced and structured Bordeaux! Another exceptional value—perfect for your everyday drinking, holiday entertaining of gift giving!
