[Chateau La Confession 2017]

Robert Parker rating: 92/100

Licorice, wet earth, espresso bean and dark, smoky cherries are front and center. It is a touch oaky on the mouth but redeemed with loads of ripe, red fruits, licorice and salty tannins. Allow a few years for the oak to further integrate and this beauty will come together nicely. The wine was made from a blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc.

Grape variety: 75% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc

【Chateau La Confession 2022】

Robert Parker Rating: 90/100

The 2022 La Confession offers up aromas of sweet blackberries, mint chocolate and toasty oak, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and velvety palate built around powdery tannins. Its élevage remains front-and-center for the time being. 

Grape variety: 
70% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Franc, 3% Malbec
