James Suckling
Reviewed January 2025Attractive nose of hot chocolate, hazelnuts, rosehips and cherries follow through to a creamy, juicy and full-bodied palate. The tannins are fine and lightly chalky. Mostly merlot with some cabernet franc, malbec and petit verdot.

Decanter
Strongly scented with perfumed floral and ripe fruit aromas. Smells lively and open. Smooth and fruity with high acidity that really lifts this and gives tons of freshness but still with the ripe, concentrated fruit underneath which gives a nice contrast. Ends mineral and salty with liquorice and clove spice adding further complexity. (GH)

Jane Anson
Sappy, with mouthwatering juice on the finish, intense and concentrated, attractive, enjoyable, well balanced, show a savoury edge to the berry fruit even in this intensely ripe vintage. A good value pick. Hubert de Boüard de Laforest consultant, Jean-Francois Janoueix owner.

Vinous
The 2022 Tour du Pas Saint-Georges is a big, big wine. Succulent dark plum, espresso, licorice, new leather and incense saturate the palate. This unapologetically rich, opulent Saint-Georges Saint-Émilion is not at all subtle, but it is well done. A touch of savory complexity from the Cabernet Franc lingers. (AG)
Notes
From the smallest of Saint-Émilion's four satellite appellations, this red comes from Saint-Georges-Saint-Émilion, just north of Saint-Émilion itself. The area's clay-limestone soils are particularly well suited to Merlot.
