Based on 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc from 4.5 hectares of vines on blue clay and more iron-rich gravelly soils and aged 16-18 months in 50% new French oak, the 2023 Château Hosanna is absolutely gorgeous and one of the finest vintages from this château that I can remember. Crème de cassis, ripe black cherries, spice wood, chocolate, and flowery nuances define the aromatics, and it's rich and medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a seamless, layered, sensationally textured mouthfeel, polished, velvety tannins, and a great finish. It's just a classic, deep, layered, magical Pomerol that flirts with perfection. Hide bottles for 7-8 years if you can, and it will shine over the following 30 years or more. Drink 2033-2063.

Crisp and a bit showy but appealing for its rich Asian pear, lemon, yeast roll and toasted spice flavors. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Drink now.

Vibrant and refined, with multilayered apple and pear flavors accented by brioche, cherry and spiced cinnamon tones that linger on the rich finish. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Drink now.

There’s fine depth to the aromas and flavors of cherry, pomegranate, wild rosemary, pine and mineral. The flavors shift between fruit, savory and mineral elements as this red builds to the long, detailed aftertaste. Dense, gripping tannins keep this tight and youthful. Best from 2029 through 2047.

A lovely, layered white, gracefully integrating a core of creamed golden apple, pear, orange curd, persimmon, pastry dough and crystallized honey notes with palate-cleansing acidity and an underlying streak of salinity. Expands nicely on the palate, revealing additional accents of chamomile, broom, lemon wax, wet stone and blanched almond that linger on the refreshing finish. Pinot Bianco, Friulano and Sauvignon. Drink now through 2040.
