Falstaff: 94 Punkte 

"Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Feine Kräuterwürze, schwarze Kirschen, reife Zwetschken, deutliche Merlot- Prägung, kandierte Mandarinenzesten, einladendes Bukett. Saftig, gute Frische, dezente Süße, reife Tannine, strukturiert, kalkige Mineralität verleiht einen kühleren Charakter, gute Länge, ein feinwürziger Speisenbegleiter, sicheres Reifepotenzial." - Peter Moser (04/2026) 


Decanter: 93 Punkte

"Ripe blackcurrant aromas on the nose. Fresh and lively with a lovely tangy aspect straight away - the acidity prominent in the glass. Juicy and lifted, nice and friendly with lots of strawberry, raspberry and cranberry fruit. The tannins come in towards the finish giving some compaction with a crushed velvet aspect but this should soften and harmonise nicely over ageing. A real combination of the clay structure with the limestone freshness and grip - you don’t feel the extraction, just the terroir. More structure than recent vintages. Natural yeast for fermentation. 3.6pH." - Georgina Hindle (04/2026) 


Jane Anson: 93 Punkte 

"Enticing aromatics that beautifully capture the blue and black brambled fruits that are on offer in 2025. The oak is smoky and full of character, intense but with balance, skilfully handled. Harvest September 10 to 22. 25% new oak. 36hl/ha yield." (04/2026)

The 2025 Côte de Baleau is quite dense in this vintage, largely due to a reduction of fruit from sandier soils. This usually comprises about a third of the blend, but these parcels are currently being redeveloped. Succulent dark cherry fruit, new leather, licorice, mocha and sweet French oak are pushed forward. Plush contours wrap it all up in style. This is a fine choice for medium-term drinking, once the tannins soften a bit. Tasted two times.

A juicy and fruity wine with a lovely center palate of fruit. It’s medium-bodied with polished tannins and a savory finish. Very pretty already. (04/2026)

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2025 Côte de Baleau pops from the glass with energetic notes of raspberry preserves and red currant jelly, followed by hints of red roses, clove oil, and fallen leaves. The medium- to full-bodied palate has a very firm backbone of grainy tannins with a lively line cutting through the dense, muscular red preserves flavors, finishing long and perfumed. (04/2026)

The 2025 Côte de Baleau offers up notes of minty cherries and red fruit preserve, followed by a medium-bodied, firm, taut palate. Some two hectares of the estate, located on sandy soils, is undergoing replanting, so this year's blend is skewed in favor of the estate's more structured terroirs.
