Chateau Poujeaux 2011

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (87)

A potential sleeper of the vintage, Poujeaux is a property to watch now that the Cuvelier family (the proprietors of the impressive St.-Emilion estate of Clos Fourtet) are running the show. The 2011 exhibits a dense ruby/plum/purple color, elegant black currant fruit intermixed with hints of charcoal and new saddle leather, medium body, and a rich, savory, broad, pure, impressively endowed style. It is ideal for drinking over the next 8-10 years.

Winespectator (87)

The damson plum and cherry fruit is melded with sandalwood and rooibos tea notes, revealing a flicker of red licorice on the supple finish.
