Chateau D'Aiguilhe 2022 Bordeaux

Attention Bordeaux lovers! You do not want to miss this wine!

2022 was a landmark year in Bordeaux! Powerful yet refined, combining richness with freshness in a way that reminds many critics of legendary vintages. Among the top value standouts, Château d’Aiguilhe shines brightest.

From Stephan von Neipperg (of Canon-La-Gaffelière, La Mondotte, Clos de L'Oratoire fame), this Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux is crafted with the same care as Saint-Émilion’s elite. The 2022 vintage blends plush Merlot fruit with vivid minerality, offering remarkable complexity and balance for the price.

Expect aromas of ripe blackberry, crushed stone, and mocha, leading to a silky palate with fine tannins and a long, graceful finish. This is textbook modern Bordeaux—expressive, full-bodied, and effortlessly drinkable now or over the next 10-15 years.

From Jeb Dunnuck (94pts): The 2022 Château D'Aiguilhe brings more of everything, with a gorgeous nose of black raspberries, crushed stone, spring flowers, and violets that opens up beautifully with air. This carries to a medium to full-bodied effort delivering ripe, polished tannins, a seamless mouthfeel, and a great, great finish.

At under $35, the 2022 Château d’Aiguilhe delivers high-end Right Bank character at a fraction of the price of its illustrious neighbors.

Not sure how can pass this up if you are a big Bordeaux fan. Awesome value!
