    Notes & Comments

    James Suckling : 90

    This almost pure merlot shows lots of perfume and walnut character with hints of earth. Medium body, round and soft tannins and a beautiful finish. Second wine of La Croix du Casse. Drink now or hold.

    Soft and juicy red with a linear line running through it. Medium body with berries and chocolate and a hint of coffee bean. Delicious finish. Needs one or two years to come together. Drink after 2021.

    Notes & Comments

    Neal Martin The Wine Advocate

    The 2014 Les Chemins de La Croix du Casse, the second label of La Croix du Casse, has a light tertiary, sous-bois driven bouquet that would benefit from more fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with soft tannin, moderate acidity, simple with a smooth black cherry and allspice finish that needs more delineation. Easy-drinking Pomerol.
