"Labégorce 2015 is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 44% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc, aged in new barrels (45%) and one-year-old barrels (55%). The color is a deep garnet-purple with a nose of red and black cherries, black plums, blackcurrant, and hints of charcuterie and tapenade. Medium-bodied, the palate offers great concentration and is accompanied by a firm structure of grainy tannins, with a long, savory finish.

Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (2018 guide) 17/20 (Reference wine)
Rated estate (2022 guide) 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable vintage, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the wine:
Remarkably smooth and refined, with elegant tannins; a well-rounded wine that offers excellent value for money.
About the estate:
Following the reorganization of the Perrodo family’s estates in the Margaux region, Labégorce-Zédé merged with Château Labégorce to form a single entity. Marjolaine de Coninck has served as general manager of the estates since 2010. The wines produced continue to retain their distinctive character, but now exhibit greater modernity, finesse, and elegance.

Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2021 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
A beautiful neoclassical building standing in the middle of its vineyards, just outside Margaux on the road to Pauillac, this estate has benefited from significant investments since its purchase in 1989 by the Perrodo family, who also own Château Marquis d'Alesme. The 2009 merger with Château Labégorce Zédé allowed it to regain its original vineyard (70 hectares), the one it had prior to the 1794 division. Nathalie Perrodo-Samani took over the family estates in 2006, following the death of her father, Hubert.

Rated estate (2022 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
The Perrodo family, owners of the Labégorce, Labégorce-Zédé, and Marquis d'Alesme estates, has decided to unify the two wines under the name Labégorce. The vineyard layout has been reorganized, and every effort is being made to establish this brand as a benchmark among the unclassified wines of Margaux. The older vintages, sold under the name Labégorce-Zédé, are generally of very high quality.
