Marks and reviews

Vinum

Interesting herbal-tea aromatics, medium-density herbal tannins, fresh, herbaceous finish. Easy to drink, absolutely needs some ageing after maturation.

Wine Spectator

James Molesworth

Delivers a direct core of plum and boysenberry fruit, spiked with anise, balsa wood and sweet spice notes. This has fleshed out after showing a leaner profile in barrel. Drink now through 2018. 3,330 cases made.

James Suckling

Firm and silky with a lovely texture, I like the milk-chocolate, berry and walnut character to this wine. Medium to full body. Better in 2016.

Weinwisser

Dark garnet, fairly dense in the middle, ruby rim. Quite sweet bouquet, black cherry notes with a touch of grenadine, somewhat stewed. Creamy palate, subtly muscular extract, juicy finish, again quite sweet. A Burgundian Pomerol.

René Gabriel

Dark garnet, fairly dense at the core, ruby rim. Quite sweet bouquet, black cherry notes mingle with a touch of grenadine, giving the nose a slightly stewed impression. Creamy palate, subtly muscular extract, juicy finish, again fairly sweet. Burgundian Pomerol.

André Kunz

(96% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Sauvignon) Silky, finely opulent, floral bouquet, black cherries, blueberries, caramel, toasted notes. Silky, more austere palate with sweet fruit, plenty of slightly dry tannins, spicy aromatics, long, austere finish. 17/20 2019 - 2032

Bettane+Desseauve

The wine has depth and a beautiful structure. Lots of substance.

Jean-Marc Quarin

Dark red color. Lovely nose with ripe, fragrant fruit. A smooth, silky, and flavorful palate. Normal length. A nice surprise.

Description

A fruity and refined red wine from Pomerol

The property
Owned by the Castéja family since 2005, the Château La Croix du Casse is a very serious reference of the Pomerol appellation, on the right bank of Bordeaux. Equipped with efficient tools and benefiting from an exceptional vineyard, the property stands out for its great Pomerol wines full of charm and seduction expressing all the typicity of the appellation.

The vineyard
Located at the southern tip of the Pomerol plateau, the vineyard of Château La Croix du Casse extends over a terroir characteristic of the appellation, consisting of gravels and ancient sands with a sub-layer containing a significant proportion of iron crasse.

Blend
Merlot, cabernet franc.
