Castle Petit Bocq - Saint-Estèphe 2014

Wine Advocate

80 / 100

The 2014 Petit Bocq had a rather animally, savory nose, perhaps with just a touch of brettanomyces (though nothing too serious). The palate is soft and smudged on the entry with grippy, savory, meaty red fruit, but it feels far too dry on the tapered finish. I would be cautious about the aging potential of this. Tasted September 2016.

The 2014 Petit Bocq is a pretty, fruit-driven red to drink in its youth, while the flavors are vibrant and focused. Silky tannins add texture to a round, supple finish that only adds to the wine's near-term appeal. Sweet red stone fruit, spice and leather add pretty layers of nuance.

Smoke, licorice, oak and dark red berries, this wine is a medium-bodied, easy-drinking charmer. 87-88 Pts

The Châtea Petit Bocq 2014 has an outgoing, quite oaky bouquet with quite strong chocolate scents that make it feel as if there was a bit of American oak. The palate is sweet on the entry with plush red fruit, but the oak component is far too strong and dominates, oppresses the finish, to the extent that you cannot discern the wine. I'll seek to retaste this in the future. Tasted on three occasions.

Asian Palate

79 / 100

byJeannie Cho Lee MWthe4/20/2015

Rustic, simple wine with coarse tannins on the palate. This wine lacks charm and polish - the main problem is the quality and texture of the tannins which are drying and harsh. Even in this year, the wine is not much better than in previous years.

Dark crimson. Firm, savoury, even a little salty. Very energetic and well balanced even if only with medium tally of tannin. Correct and winning. Could be GV.
