The 2015 Paloumey replicated its strong showing at the Cru Bourgeois tasting last year. If anything, the aromatics have meliorated to offer red cherries, raspberry and rose petal scents. The palate is crisp and taut, the acidity well judged with impressive tension towards the red cherry and strawberry finish. This is just a delightful Cru Bourgeois that will give a lot of pleasure. Drinking range: 2019 - 2027 Rating: 91 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Apr 2020)

55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot. Tea leaves and concentration on the nose. Dry finish. But correct and satisfying. Not luscious but should be good with food. Stony. Drinking range: 2018 - 2024Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Sept 2017)

The 2015 Paloumey is one of the better Haut-Médocs I tasted. Dark cherry, plum, tobacco and blood orange flesh out in this attractive, succulent red. The creamy, inviting finish adds to the wine's up-front appeal. Rating: 87-89 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Apr 2016)

Château Paloumey

When Martine Cazeneuve purchased Château Paloumey in 1990, she took up the challenge of reviving a prestigious and forgotten terroir located next to the famous Château la Lagune and Cantemerle. Replanting the vineyard and rebuilding the cellars have been a tremendous challenge for Martine, her aim was to achieve the highest quality possible for Paloumey wines. After years of hard work, commitment and passion, the estate was brought back to life and now extends over 32 hectares. Elegant in style, this is one of the greatest wine of the Haut-Medoc AOC.
