Gold medal - Sélections Mondiales des Vins Canada 2024
Named after the old Médoc diligences (patache) and the descendants of Comtes d'Armagnac (les Chevaliers d'Aux), Château Patache d'Aux is still part of the vineyards exploited by the Lapalu family. Following a year of aging in French casks (33% new) the wine features nice structure and back-bone as well as a woody and fruity profile with torrefaction notes.

Ontario - Pie IX
April 1, 2025
(Automatically translated) A rich, but very supple wine, with very ripe fruit and soft tannins. The perfect balance. Serve with a nice piece of red meat or leave to age for 4 or 5 years in the cellar.
Côte-des-Neiges - Jean-Brillant
January 20, 2025
(Automatically translated) Magnificent Bordeaux blend from the left bank of the Gironde. Mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by a good part of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. A rich but not heavy wine, with ripe fruitiness and delicate tannins. At this price, for a 2016, we want more!
