I've been thoroughly enjoying the work that they are doing at Marquis d'Alesme in recent vintages and this very much continues the success. Sappy, juicy, well defined raspberry and blackberry fruits, concentrated in all the right places, with a saline finish that is both mouthwatering and moreish. Winemaker Marjolaine de Coninck has steered the property through the heat of the summer and got the balance just right.

A big, juicy red with lots of blackberry and chocolate character to the fruit, as well as juicy and chewy tannins. It shows plenty of backbone and stuffing.

Couleur sombre, intense et belle. Nez très aromatique, fin, fruité et pur. Minutieux en entrée de bouche, avec une texture caressante et de l'éclat dans le goût, le vin évolue délicieux, sur un toucher fin et un corps allongé. Belle finale savoureuse. C'est très bon.

Very deep purple-black colored, it charges out of the gate with bold notions of baked blackberries, warm cassis and plum preserves plus hints of dried Provence herbs, cracked black pepper, woodsmoke and hoisin. The medium-bodied palate has bags of freshness and a ripe, grainy-textured frame supporting the generous black fruits, finishing long and savory.

Le vin brille par sa belle densité en bouche et, surtout, par son admirable velouté. Très élégant et tramé, porté par un fruit pur, c'est une nouvelle référence pour ce cru qui ne cesse de progresser.

The 2019 Marquis d'Alesme has tuned out well, wafting from the glass with aromas of sweet berry fruit, woodsmoke, licorice and sweet soil tones. Medium to full-bodied, ample and seamless, it's supple and charming, with a succulent core of fruit, powdery tannins and fine length.
