The Château Caronne Ste Gemme is undoubtedly one of those great Crus Bourgeois becoming almost as good as the Classified Growths. Not surprising when you know that this estate has been part of the Nony family for the last century. Attractive colour, nicely fruity and soft in the mouth, exactly what a wine lover expect from any wine!

Wine Spectator Lots of berry and chocolate character with hints of vanilla. Full-bodied, with a solid core of fruit and silky tannins. Impressive. Almost hard to believe, it's so good. Score range: 88-91. Score: 91. —James Suckling, June 30, 2006.

Wine Advocate Space limitations did not allow complete tasting notes for this Cru Bourgeois, but 2005 is the finest vintage for these wines since 1982. The range of scores for these wines should give readers an idea of just how consistent this vintage is at this level. Given the style of the vintage, most of these wines should be accessible young yet evolve for a decade or more because of their concentration and tannic structure.(88-90) Score: 90. February 2006.
