Lapostolle Cuvee Alexandre Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 - 750ml

94pts James Suckling

A fresh nose full of fruit. Dark cherries, fresh blueberries, spices, crushed stones and olives. A touch of graphite, too. Well-structured and vertical on the palate, but there is also fluidity in the center palate filled with fruit. Tight grip of crunchy tannins at the end before a long, fruit-expressive finish. Drink from 2025.

92pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2022 Cuvée Alexandre Cabernet Sauvignon strikes a desirable balance between soft, creamy approachability and a serious expression of its origins. On the nose, red and black fruits blend with fresh rosemary and sage aromas, all framed with judicious new oak. The palate is rich and layered, embracing the lavish house profile while retaining a deftness and purity that carries through to the elegant, refined finish.
