Score 89-91/100 · Drink 2030-2046, Neal Martin, May 2026

The 2025 Haut-Bages Monpelou is the one cuvée from the Castèja family that just missed some aromatics, felt a bit bashful on the day of my visit. The palate is perfectly fine, almost the opposite, with upfront ripe blackberry, raspberry and blueberry notes, quite fleshy tannins and well-judged acidity. Come back another day, I am sure the aromatics will open after bottling and my score is based on that.

The 2025 Haut-Bages Montpelou offers up generous dark fruit intermingled with spice, new leather, espresso and mocha. Soft, succulent contours wrap it all together. Plummy forest flavors characterize the rich, mouthfilling palate.
