(12x75cl) 2016Vinous - Antonio Galloni (87-90)
The 2016 La Croix St. Georges is a supple, easygoing Pomerol with good depth and resonance, but less in the way of either complexity or structure. Succulent red cherry, plum, espresso, mocha and sweet floral notes add to the wine's considerable immediacy. The 2016 should be a fine early drinker. Tasted two times.HK$5,780.00 -

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (88-91)
The 2018 La Croix St. Georges is powerful, inky and deep. There is quite a bit of up-front density and attack, but then some of that tapers off on the mid-palate and finish. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, rose petal, licorice and spice add to the wine's racy, super-ripe profile. I find the 2018 just a touch on the heavy side. Even so, there is plenty of potential.HK$5,345.00 -

(6x75cl) 2019Vinous - Neal Martin (87-89)
The 2019 La Croix du Casse offers pleasant red cherry, raspberry and light forest floor scents on the nose. Not intense, but with good precision. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly rustic tannins on the entry, saline in the mouth with a peppery finish. It is missing a little grace but there is decent persistence. This Pomerol often meliorates with bottle age.HK$1,345.00 -
(6x75cl) 2020Vinous - Neal Martin (89-91)
The 2020 La Croix du Casse is ripe and generous on the nose, presenting a mixture of blackberry and blueberry fruit, quite high-toned and floral. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins and a fine bead of acidity, well balanced and displaying more mineralité on the finish than I have noticed in recent vintages.
