Score 92/100 · Drink 2025-2028, Yohan Castaing, Wine Advocate, Apr 2023

Matured in 15% new oak, 10% in large clay  jars and the rest in one or two wine barrels, the 2020 Vieux Château Saint André delivers aromas of graphite, licorice and dark berries with an elegant earthy note. A bit firm and austere, the wine is medium to full-bodied on the palate with both structuring and powdery tannins as well as controlled power. A period in the cellar (4 to 10 years) will allow it to blossom.

Exceptionally good, there is such heart to this wine, with rugged-textured tannins, edges of slate and salted black chocolate, sculpted blueberry fruits, touch of sage and fresh earth. Great stuff from owners and winemakers Jean-Claude and Jeff Berrouet. Will soften over next few years, but no need to wait too long to get going on this lovely wine. 20% new oak.
