95 Points! Dried bitter herbs, tobacco ash and ripe plums, berries and roasted spices on the nose. A hint of chocolate too. On the palate, this is juicy and well crafted with precise, chalky tannins and a lengthy finish that lingers effortlessly. It lasts almost half a minute. Impeccable balance here. Drink or hold. - JamesSuckling.com

93 Points! Aromas of dark berries, pipe tobacco, pencil shavings, licorice and new oak introduce the 2022 La Croix St Georges, a full-bodied, velvety and enveloping wine that's rich and seamless, with a sweet core of fruit and a long, creamy finish. This marks the beginning of a positive trajectory for this estate that's adjacent to Le Pin and one of La Fleur-Pétrus's parcels. - William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

94 Points! A pure Merlot-based Pomerol, the 2022 Château La Croix Saint Georges offers rocking notes of plums, black cherries, leafy herbs, and chocolate. Medium to full-bodied, round, and lush, it has a beautifully textured and polished profile that’s perfect for drinking over the coming decade or so. Count me impressed – this is a smoking good Pomerol I’d be thrilled to drink. - Jeb Dunnuck
