Score 85-86/100 · Drink 2014-2018, Robert Parker, Aug 2014

An attractive, easygoing, low-level Bordeaux with modest black cherry and black currant fruit intermixed with underbrush and loamy soil notes, and a medium-bodied, delicate finish, the 2013 Lalande Borie can be drunk over the next 3-4 years.

70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc. 30% new oak. Black cherry, really smooth and sleek. Well-managed tannins, just giving a nice chewy finish. Lots of dark chocolate – but not too bitter. (RH)

Score 86-88/100 · Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Apr 2014

The 2013 Lalande-Borie is a pretty wine laced with sweet red berries, crushed flowers, mint and spices. Pliant and generous, this mid-weight, gracious red impresses for its balance and classy personality.
