Note di degustazione
Ripe red and black cherries, smoked tobacco, and violets emerge from the 2023 Château Ferriere, a ripe, rounded 2023 from this estate. It has medium-bodied richness, nicely integrated oak, ripe tannins, and a great finish. This plump, nicely concentrated effort already offers pleasure yet I see no reason it shouldn't evolve nicely over the coming 15-20 years in cold cellars. Drink 2026-2046.

The 2023 Ferrière deftly marries elegance and power. Strong savory and floral inflections convey brightness right out of the gate. Dark blue-toned fruit, lavender, mint, spice and rose petal lend raciness. This vibrant Margaux is all class. I especially admire its energy. The 2023 spent 18 months in a combination of French oak, concrete tank and amphora.
The 2023 Ferrière has a well-defined bouquet with blackberry, wild hedgerow and light iris flower scents that is nicely focused. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chalky tannins, touches of black tea infusing the black fruit, with a healthy pinch of black pepper on the finish. This is worth seeking out.
Checking in as 61% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest mostly Merlot, raised in 40% new oak, the 2023 Château Ferriere is beautiful, with juicy red (and some blue) fruits as well as classic Margaux notes of spice, flowers, and leather. It's complex and medium-bodied, with a supple, layered, elegant texture, beautiful tannins, and a great finish.
