"Beyond the aromas of ripe plum and black cherry that burst forth from this Merlot-dominated blend, there is an additional layer of nuance that sets it apart from many other wines tasted blind in the Bordeaux AOC category. The palate is well-structured with ripe tannins and a velvety finish." (Decanter Magazine)

Wine rated 14/20 (Good wine)

Rated estate (2019 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)

About the estate:

The Despagne family owns five estates and 300 hectares of vineyards, planted with traditional Bordeaux grape varieties. The Despagnes’ dedication, creativity, and expertise ensure that all their wines—particularly those from their flagship estates, Tour de Mirambeau and Rauzan Despagne—could serve as a model for many Bordeaux wines: always appealing yet never straying far from classic Bordeaux style. Here, the wines are always very harmonious.

Guide Hachette des vins

Wine noted (guide 2018) 1*Star (Very successful wine)

Rated estate (2019 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines regularly receive awards from the guide)

About the wine:

The delicate nose combines notes of crushed strawberries, blackcurrant, and vanilla. On the palate, it is full-bodied, round, supple, and has good length.

About the estate:

With over two centuries of winemaking tradition, the Despagne family, based in the heart of the Entre-deux-Mers region, is a key player in the Bordeaux wine industry, managing 300 hectares spread across several vineyards—Bel Air Perponcher, Tour de Mirambeau, Rauzan Despagne, Lion Beaulieu, and Mont-Pérat—managed by the children of Jean-Louis (Thibault, Gabriel, and Basaline) and by Joël Elissalde, the technical director. Their wines are frequently featured in these pages, in all three colors.
