Vinous - Antonio Galloni (89)The 2019 La Croix de Gay is a bit rustic and rough around the edges, but it has good depth and plenty of character. Black fruit, leather, chocolate, licorice and dried herbs give the 2019 savory intensity to match its succulent dark fruit. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (89)The 2020 La Croix de Gay is a potent, brooding wine. A blast of dark cherry fruit, dried herbs, menthol, licorice, game and smoke adds to an impression of somber, virile intensity. Powerful, sinewy tannins are pretty dominant. It will be interesting to see if this softens with time. Today, it is a brute. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (83-85)The 2021 La Croix de Gay did show some reduction on three samples tasted, and yet underneath, I feel there is some underripeness. The palate is medium-bodied with dry tannins, and rather hard for a Pomerol, with an austere, bitter finish. I re-tasted this from two further bottles, hoping to find a more promising wine, but they simply reaffirmed my initial finding. |

SG$1,545.58 |
|||||
Wine Advocate (91)A dense plum/ruby/purple color is accompanied by sweet aromas of chocolatey black cherry and black currant fruit intertwined with a notion of wood smoke. Fashioned from a blend of 92% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc, it is a round, opulent, pure, elegant effort created by Michel Rolland’s top assistant, Jean-Philippe Fort, and proprietor Jean-Philippe Janoueix. Drink it over the next decade or more. |

Hauntingly transcendent, the La Croix de St-Georges 2012 showcases the poetic beauty of fine wine craftsmanship. Born in the verdant vineyards of the St-Georges appellation on Bordeaux's Right Bank, this wine speaks volumes of its provenance. Crafted by Jean-Philippe Janoueix, a seasoned wine artisan from a deeply rooted Bordeaux family, this extraordinary blend bathes the palate in a melange of blackberry, plum and cigar box undertones. The La Croix de St-Georges 2012's unhurried maturation, first in a fermenting vat and then 14 months in oak barrels, bestows it with a profound depth of flavour. With tannins that are firm yet supple, this wine is a testament to the winemaker's skill in achieving equilibrium. A well-reputed jewel of the Janoueix portfolio, each sip of La Croix de St-Georges 2012 reaffirms its sterling pedigree in every sense. Truly, the epitome of elegantly enthralling Bordeaux wine. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (89-91)The 2013 La Croix Saint Georges has been gorgeous on the three times I have tasted it thus far. Impeccable and silky on the palate, the 2013 is a wine of nuance and balance. Dark red/black fruit, smoke, tobacco and savory herbs are some of the many nuances that emerge from a wine that offers quite a bit of complexity in the glass. Cinnamon, mint and cedar wrap around the juicy finish. Today, the oak is a bit pronounced, but that is a relatively small critique for a wine that delivers so much pleasure. |

Wine Advocate (90-92)The Château La Croix St. Georges 2014 has an uncomplicated, fresh bouquet with brambly red berry fruit with a touch of wilted rose petal, though it does not deliver the concentration of recent vintages. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe tannin, well-judged acidity and a harmonious, elegant finish. Winemaker Jean-Philippe Janoueix usually goes from a more bullish style of Pomerol. This is more refined and in a way, classier. It will also be one of Pomerol's more approachable wines but one that still deserves respect. |

There is a wealth of great French wine outside the ‘Big 4’ (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and Rhone). The Languedoc Roussillon with it’s herby, robust Mediterranean reds, Provence with its pale, vinous roses, Loire with its flinty Sauvignons, crunchy Cabernet Francs, and endlessly fascinating Chenins, Jura with its old fashioned curiosities… the list goes on. Tradition and terroir are the veins running through them all, making French wines still the most emulated in the world.
