Chateau Mont Perat Rouge 2022 《ZF040F》

🏅 Vinous 87-89 pts

The nose on the 2022 Mont-Pérat still needs to cohere and offer more fruit—this is a bit surly and backward. The palate is medium-bodied, spicy and peppery, with a touch of sapid black fruit and a finish that deserves better aromatics. Give it a year in bottle and keep fingers crossed.

🏅 James Suckling 91-92pts

A juicy, fruity and spicy red, showing cherries, strawberries and warm spices. Medium-bodied, this has velvety tannins and finely grained texture with a delicious stream of purple berries and a flavorful, persistent finish. Drink from 2026.

🏅 Jeb Dunnuck 90-92pts

Always a good value, the 2022 Château Mont-Pérat sports a deep ruby/plum color as well as a perfumed bouquet of red and blue fruits, spring flowers, violets, and a chalky, mineral-like character. It's medium-bodied, has wonderful fruit, ripe tannins, and a good finish.

🏅 Decanter 90pts

Supple and generous, this is full of crisp and gently sweet blackcurrant, cherry and plum fruits with a smooth, silky tannic structure that feels so effortless on the palate. Still concentrated and tannic no doubt, but balanced. This feels well worked and lifted with lively acidity keeping the fun factor and clear menthol freshness on the finish. Juicy and succulent, lots to enjoy. 3.65pH. Rolland & Associés consultants.
