Jeb Dunnuck
Reviewed March 2026Based on 91% Merlot and 9% Cabernet Franc from deeper, clay soils, the ruby/plum-hued 2023 Château Grand Village spent a year in 30% new French oak before bottling. It tastes like a mini Pomerol with its ripe, juicy black cherries, damp earth, roasted herbs, and graphite. It's medium-bodied and has a pure, focused, layered mouthfeel and a great finish.

Decanter
Very fragrant and floral expression on the nose, really open and forward. Smooth and full of bright energy with savoury, herbal strawberry and red cherry notes. Great texture, fresh and focused. This has good structure in terms of fleshy tannins but with a cool, bite to the quite high acidity which keeps it lifted. Nice balance, precision and drinkability with a salty, chalky, graphite finish. I like this a lot. Clean, grippy, well balanced. Really well made. (GH)

Wine Advocate
Aromas of cassis, blueberries, dark wild berries and flowers introduce the 2023 Grand Village, a medium to full-bodied, layered and fleshy wine with a deep core of fruit that's framed by powdery tannins, concluding with a long, saline finish. As readers may remember, Grand Village is one of the best values in Bordeaux, and this year, it exceeds expectations. It's one of the sleepers of the vintage. This is a blend of 91% Merlot (picked between the 11th and 14th of September) and 9% Cabernet Franc (picked on the 20th of September). (YC)

Crunchy and flavorful with chocolate and currant notes, as well as an orange-peel undertone. It’s medium-bodied with creamy tannins and a savory finish. Spicy and salty at the end. A blend of 91% merlot and 9% bouchet (cabernet franc).
