90 Points - Jeb Dunnuck
In the same qualitative ballpark as the 2018, the 2019 Château Bourdieu No. 1 has a deeper ruby hue as well as a meaty, mouth-filling, medium-bodied style including classic notes of ripe red and black fruits, tobacco, leather, and assorted spices. The balance is spot on, it has terrific purity, and it possesses the structure and class to evolve for a solid decade. Best after 2022.
Chateau Bourdieu No.1 Blaye Cotes de Bordeaux offers a beautiful red ruby color, deep and intense. It leads with red fruit and blackcurrant aromas, complemented by notes of redcurrant. The palate is round and juicy, with smooth, well-integrated tannins that offer a nice structure and long finish.
97 Points - Decanter
Flamboyant and deep, with ample, lush and fresh forest fruits, bramble and cassis, with cascading sweet spice swiftly following. A super, brooding wine which will shine brighter with time.

Vinous: 91 Points
The 2019 Bourdieu is rich, fruity and super-expressive. Sweet floral and savory notes from the Cabernets perk up the Merlot fruit. Dark cherry, pomegranate, blood orange, red plum, mocha and licorice all build nicely in this sumptuous Cotes de Blaye. The 2019 has plenty to offer.
James Suckling: 91 Points
