An incredible achievement from this team, the 2021 Château Monbousquet comes from the lower plain, which was devastated due to frost and mildew, yet they've nevertheless brought more fruit and texture than those with the best terroirs in the appellation. Dark fruits, cassis, chocolate, and spice all give way to a medium to full-bodied, round, opulent beauty with solid tannins and a great finish. It's a gorgeous wine in the making.

A good amount of blackberry and black olive with a medium body, firm tannins and a fresh finish. Balanced and rather delicate. -

The 2021 Monbousquet offers lovely fruit density in the mid-weight, slightly nervy style of the year. There's terrific energy and vibrancy running through the 2021. Rose petal, lavender, spice and mint perk up the finish. The 2021 is delicate, nuanced and super-classy. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media
