Chateau Croizet Bages Pauillac 2022 750ml

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2022

Jeb Dunnuck 92 Points | The spicy, complex, medium to full-bodied 2022 Château Croizet-Bages sports a ruby/plum hue, ample red and black fruits, some leather, incense, and cedar pencil notes, terrific overall balance, ripe tannins, and a great finish. The blend is 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34.5% Merlot, and the rest Petit Verdot, all raised in 50% new barrels.

Vinous 91 Points | The 2022 Croizet Bages is a very pretty, open-knit Pauillac. Crushed flowers, sweet red-toned fruit, blood orange, mint and white pepper are all laced together. Soft, plush contours wrap it all together. The 2022 is on the riper side in terms of profile and weight, but it's well balanced.

Memo Summary Notes

The Château is located in the hamlet of Bages in the town of Pauillac, in the heart of the Médoc. It was founded in the 17th century by the Croizet brothers.  A great value driven by the fact one of the few classified estates still in independent hands and without a separate business to keep oiling the coffers without inflating its retail price. Highly
rated.
