"Best Vintage of Château La Confession”

Izak Litwar, Great Bordeaux Wines

Exceptionally aromatic on the nose with black cherries and boysenberries, fresh and vibrant, silky fruit and grained tannin, great complexity and acidity, firm structure. Alcohol is well hidden in the fruity backyard of this wine. Multilayered. It is an imposing effort.

Mélanie Laurent, Sommelier

James Suckling

This shows notes of ripe berries, savory herbs, pine cones, nut shell and overturned earth. Full body. Deep and intense with a compact core of dark fruit sitting on a bed of polished velvety tannins with great length. Lingering, chocolaty finish.

Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

Savory plums, crushed rocks, licorice, black cherry, smoke, and, and flowers come through in the nose with little effort. Round, plush, and polished, the finish is focused on its silky textures, sweet red fruits, chocolate, and the array of spices that show up in the mildly chalky endnote. This is already delicious, but it will be even better with a few years of age.

Jeb Dunnuck

Pretty red, blue, and black fruits as well as spice, leather, camphor, and dried flower notes all emerge from the 2020 Château La Confession, a beautifully perfumed, elegant, seamless 2020 with ripe, mouth-coating tannins, plnety of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. Give bottles 2-4 years and enjoy over the following 15.

Mature and decisive showing notes of black prunes, blackberries, coriander, hot asphalt, flowering geraniums, burnt orange peel and black pepper. Full bodied, biting tannins, slightly rigid at the moment and a hot, engaging finish.
