Château Le Crock 2015

Press

JamesSuckling.com James Suckling : 92 "Great cassis fruit is combined with an impressive freshness and slightly grainy, dry tannins. They need a bit of time to soften, but in every other respect this is already a very attractive wine with a long, crisp finish. Better from 2019." 03.02.2018

Vinous Media Antonio Galloni : 89 "The 2015 Le Crock is a pleasant, fruity Saint-Estèphe to drink now and over the next few years. Inky blue/purplish fruit, spice and lavender notes are nicely pushed forward in this very pretty, succulent wine. Plush fruit, soft, silky tannins and mid-weight structure are the signatures. The 2015 has turned out nicely." 01.02.2018
