Reviews

Jeb Dunnuck 90+

Bright cherries, redcurrants, smoked tobacco, and spicy, earthy notes all emerge from the 2020 Chateau Picque Caillou, a pure, medium-bodied, elegant Pessac-Leognan that has plenty of class. The tannins are fine and polished, the balance is spot on, and this is all about finesse and elegance.

James Suckling 92

Aromas of blackberries, dark chocolate, spice box and toasted almond. Some graphite, too. Medium- to full-bodied. Tight and concentrated with firm, chewy tannins. Structured and lingering.

Wine Enthusiast 93

This vineyard, now surrounded by the Bordeaux suburbs, is producing some fine classic wines. This vintage in its youth is lightly stalky, with a smoky character that comes from wood aging. Its potential is fine, softening, highlighting the black-currant flavors and tannins.

Wine Advocate 90-92

Deep purple-black colored, the 2020 Picque-Caillou shoots from the glass with a very focused and pure perfume of black cherries, fresh blackberries and lilacs, followed by hints of tapenade, garrigue and tilled soil. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers great intensity and freshness, delivering loads of crunchy black fruit and a fine-grained texture, finishing long and lively.
