Chateau Fleur Cardinale St Emilion 2022 750ML

2022 shows great intensity and complex layers of flavor. It is a beautiful example of the rich fullness of an exceptional Saint-Émilion. Bright and fresh, Chateau Fleur Cardinale displays its signature style with great structure and velvety fine grain tannins. The gorgeous Cabernet Franc stands out clearly in the blend of this vintage. 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon

Jeb Dunnuck-96

"The 2022 Château Fleur Cardinale is a blend of 78% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, vinified with a cold pre-fermentation maceration and raised for 12-14 months in 72% new French oak, 18% one-year-old barrels, 7% large foudres, and 3% amphora. It's a full-bodied, layered Saint-Émilion exhibiting dark berries, graphite, crushed stone, and truffly earth-like nuances on the nose. This ripe, yet flawlessly balanced Saint-Emilion has moderate acidity, silky tannins, and a seamless, polished texture. A slightly modern-styled expression, it’s nevertheless lush, opulent, and utterly compelling, showing both depth and finesse."

James Suckling-95

"Spiced cherries, cedar, white pepper and dark mushrooms on the nose. Almost full-bodied on the palate, with ripe, dusty, caressing tannins that are evenly packed. Juicy, long and complete. Really well balanced and already appealing, but better after 2026."
