Chateau Haut-Bergey

Haut-Bergey 2020

Haut-Bergey

Case Format: 6x75cl

Max score: 95.0

At 42 hectares in size, the Pessac-Leognan based Château Haut-Bergey is known for producing beautifully rich wines. 40 hectares are used for cultivating red grapes, whilst the remaining two are reserved for white. The red wine vineyards comprise Cabernet Sauvignon (c.43%), Merlot (c.8%), Cabernet Franc (c.5%) and Malbec (c.1%). The vineyards are spread out around the appellation, benefiting from a varied terroir that mostly comprises gravel-based soil, with vines averaging 30 years in age. There is no malolactic fermentation and the wine is aged in 30% new French oak for 10-12 months. The result? A distinctive, poetic wine that contains flavours of crunchy red and juicy black fruits, both of which are shaped by delicate tannins that gracefully develop with age.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2020 Haut Bergey strides out of the glass with notes of stewed black and red plums, baked blackberries and Morello cherries, plus touches of tar, unsmoked cigars and charcuterie with a touch of bay leaves. The medium-bodied palate has a pleasant chewiness and just enough freshness to frame the black fruit layers, finishing long and savory.

Intense blackberry and hawthorn flavours where you just know there is juice and character without going overboard. Not overly polished, not overoaked there is a lot to enjoy here, although a point of bitterness on the finish pulls things up a little short. Certified organic and biodynamic.
