Reviews and Ratings

Christian Marcoux rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Chateau Du Breuil 2014, a Cru Bourgeois from Haut-Medoc, shows quality and drinkability. On the nose: black cherry, black plum, tobacco leaf, charcoal, spice and cedar. Crafted from 54% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Petit Verdot, the wine reveals a medium body, well integrated tannins and a pleasant dry finish. Palate: cherry, blueberry, bay leaf, leather, baking spice and cedar. Enjoy!
Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This Merlot dominated blend reminds me why I am partial to Haut-Médoc. This is a fine example with a classic nose of dusty roses over restrained fruit. It is full-bodied and intense although there is a slight suggestion of candied cherry on the palate. Otherwise nicely balanced with soft tannins on the finish. Serve with beef stew now or hold another couple of years. Tasted February 2020. www.thewineloverskitchen.com
Linda Mertes WSET 2 rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

A medium-bodied blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Verdot, this Bordeaux wine has been aged since 2014 and has an earthy palate. Well-balanced with medium acidity and tannins and a dry finish. Decant or age further. Pair with beef. Tasted February 2020.
From the Haut-Médoc, Bordeaux wine region, Château Du Breuil 2014 is a full-bodied red wine blend from old vines Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot sourced from a 6th century estate under the same ownership as neighboring Château Cissac. Chateau Cissac has been in the hands of the Vialard family since 1895. Deep red in the glass, with dark plum and savoury aromas on the nose, ripe dark fruit, blackberry, earthy violets and savoury herb flavours on the palate. Pair with a game roast or stew. - Community Wine Reviews
