Château Bourgneuf 2021 is a medium-to-full-bodied, Merlot-based red wine from the Pomerol appellation of Bordeaux. A blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc from 40+ year-old vines planted on iron-rich soils in the best vineyard sites in Pomerol, this is a broad, structured claret with layers of spiced dark berry fruit on a creamily rich palate, with lively acidity providing lift. A Pomerol that will reward cellaring for five to 10 years. "The 2021 Bourgneuf was picked September 27 to October 4. It has an attractive nose with bright black cherry and wild strawberry fruit and fine mineralité. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit laced with tobacco and thyme, building nicely toward a cohesive, sappy finish. The 2021 continues a fine run for this Pomerol estate." Vinous, 2022

The 2021 Bourgneuf has turned out better than I anticipated, and one senses its proximity to Trotanoy more clearly than was the case from barrel. Exhibiting aromas of sweet berries, cherries and licorice, it`s medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, with good depth at the core, framed by sweet structuring tannins. While it will offer plenty of near-term appeal, don`t discount its capacity to age. - William Kelley

The 2021 Bourgneuf is a delicate, charming Pomerol. Crushed flowers, spice, red berry fruit and orange peel are all nicely lifted. This is an especially perfumed, mid-weight vintage for Bourgneuf, a wine that has been bigger in the recent past.

85% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc. Cask sample.Rich and creamy but nothing forced. Some sweetness on attack but freshness as well. Well structured with drive and persistence. Could be GV. (JL)
