James Suckling: 93 Points
Mango, apple and creamy aromas with some honey and vanilla undertones. Full-bodied with a creamy texture and lovely depth and richness. Seems more like a top Pessac-Leognan in nature. 50% semillon, 45% sauvignon blanc and 5% sauvignon gris. Drink or hold.
Vinous: 92 Points
The 2019 Chantegrive Caroline is a selection of the chateau's best grapes and is vinified in oak. Ample and creamy, with terrific resonance, the 2019 is stylish and wonderfully open knit. There's real class and personality here. Apricot, pear, and a touch of oak build together effortlessly. The blend is 50% Semillon, 45% Sauvignon Blanc, and 5% Sauvignon Gris.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
This well-structured wine offers wood-aging flavors and a texture that is still tight and young. It has great potential, the ripe fruits and spicy flavors allied to the wine's concentration. Drink from 2022.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
The 2019 Cuvee Caroline has a fragrant nose of orange blossoms, Bosc pears, green apples and lime leaves with wafts of lemongrass and coriander seed. Light to medium-bodied, the palate is delicately styled and refreshing with a compelling chalkiness to the finish. The blend here is 50% Sémillon, 45% Sauvignon Blanc and 5% Sauvignon Gris.
