Critics Ratings

'Relatively generous wood sets off a ripe nose of honeysuckle, acacia blossom and liqueur of pear nuances that is followed by mouth coating, powerful and wonderfully rich flavors that possess a luxurious mouth feel due to the abundant amount of extract present on the palate coating finish. This is a big if not especially refined example of Bienvenues that offers an acceptable amount of complexity.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 91/100 (Nov 2012)

'Full yellow. Peach nectar, honey, vanilla and musky lees on the nose. Concentrated, sweet and deep; wonderfully chewy grand cru and surprisingly open-knit today. A saline character adds an element of interest to the lingering finish. This seems approachable now but should have the stuffing to age.' - Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, 92/100 (Nov 2012)
