Château Puech-Haut - Languedoc Tête de Bélier rouge 2022
17,5/20
Jancis Robinson
"A timeless classic that never gets old—perfect for enthusiasts"
“This is an imposing wine… Aromas of ripe fruit with intense sweetness, enhanced by spicy notes reminiscent of liqueur (cumin, cardamom, caraway) and Turkish coffee. Everything about this wine is a true delight. Full-bodied, yet the finish is very fresh. A magnificent, gigantic wine, not without a touch of alluring rusticity.” (Jancis Robinson 2026).

About the wine:
This is an imposing wine… Aromas of ripe fruit with intense sweetness, enhanced by spicy notes reminiscent of liqueur (cumin, cardamom, caraway) and Turkish coffee. Everything about this wine is a true delight. Even the tannins evoke the embroidered silk of the curtains draping the bay windows of manor houses. Full-bodied, yet the finish is very fresh. A magnificent, gigantic wine that isn’t without a touch of alluring rusticity.
