Critics Ratings

'This has a relatively polished feel, with rounded tannins, though they are substantial enough to give the core of tobacco, black currant paste and warmed fig flavors a nice loamy tug through the finish. Rather refined and with noticeably more depth than AOC colleagues in this vintage, with a very alluring hint of fresh bay at the very end. Drink now through 2023.' - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, 93/100 (Dec 2015)

'Mid crimson. Meaty and toasty on the nose but a mite restrained on the palate. Lots of iron filings. Needs lots of time. This sure is archetypal St-Estèphe! Very chewy still.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18/20 (Mar 2010)
