Falstaff: 91 Punkte
"Deep dark ruby garnet, opaque core, violet reflections, delicate edge brightening. Some nougat, dark berry fruit, a hint of herbs, somewhat restrained bouquet. Medium complexity, subtle plum fruit, integrated tannins, some nougat, needs time." - Peter Moser (04/2026)
Yves Beck: 86-88 Punkte
"Maucaillous Bouquet ist vom Ausbau geprägt, zeigt aber auch Noten von roten Beeren. Er beginnt samten und entwickelt sich linear. Seine eingebundenen Tannine bilden das Rückgrat, gemeinsam mit der Säurestruktur. Ein frischer und saftiger Wein, den man in seiner Jugend genießen sollte. 2029-2037" (04/2026)

"Powerful rich purple colour, high cloves, spiced cocoa bean and smoked earth, this has high extraction, walks the line but stays on the right side of bitter. Chalky tannins as it opens, allowing the fruit to appear. 30% new oak. Harvest 8 to 22 September." (04/2026)
Decanter: 90 Punkte
"Sweet coffee and liquorice on the nose with a hint of sloe berries. The palate is a bit fragile, though fine and precise, moderately concentrated, and short. Red cherries and red plums dominate the flavour, with fine-grained tannins supporting the structure. Quite accessible already" (04/2026)
