L'avis des experts

Wine Enthusiast:

This well-run estate shows its pedigree in this latest release. The firm tannins of the appellation are balanced by powerful black fruits and smoky, wood-aging flavors. The 63% Cabernet Sauvignon is the key to the wine's structure and aging potential. Drink from 2025. Roger Voss

James Suckling:

Blackcurrant, black-cherry, dark-chocolate, clove and praline aromas. Oyster shell. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, chalky tannins and a creamy texture. Medium finish. Nice texture to this. Polished texture. Drink from 2023.

Jeb Dunnuck:

This estate delivers terrific wines in just about every vintage. The 2018 Château Le Boscq offers a deep purple hue as well as a rocking nose of blue fruits, plums, violets, damp earth, and flowers. Rich and medium-bodied, it has a wonderfully sweet core of fruit and a great finish. It's ideal for drinking over the coming 10-15 years.

The Wine Advocate:

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 le Boscq reveals notes of warm cassis, ripe black plums and boysenberries with hints of charcoal, pencil lead, star anise and bouquet garni. The medium to full-bodied palate is chock-full of crunchy black fruits, framed by ripe, grainy tannins and impressive freshness and finishes with great length and lovely purity.
