Falstaff: 92 Punkte
"Deep dark ruby garnet, opaque core, violet reflections, delicate edge brightening. Ripe plum fruit with a delicate floral underlay, a hint of cassis, liquorice, nuances of mandarin zest. Juicy, fresh black berry fruit, fine tannins, mineral, cherries on the finish, a light-footed, fresh food companion." - Peter Moser (04/2026)
Jane Anson: 89 Punkte
"This is juicy, plenty of blueberry, cranberry and plum fruits, if a little overly intrusive in the acidity. This is where you see that limestone and low ph can act like a sword in the 2025 vintage. Should soften and widen over ageing." (04/2026)
Decanter: 91 Punkte
"Crushed tobacco and plum aromas are followed through on the palate, but the tannin seems to dominate just a bit! I like the ripe fruit profile with pleasing aromatics, even if they are not as effusive as some of its Fronsac peers." - Panos Kakaviatos (04/2026)
Vinum: 93 Punkte
"Tiefdunkle Farbe, schwarze Beerenfrucht, Pflaumen, Weihnachtsgewürze, dunkle Schokolade, Tabaknoten; dichter Gaumen, fast schon zwei Mund voll Wein, die reife Frucht wird von pudrigen Tanninen getragen, mächtig, dennoch mit Eleganz und einem langen, salinen Finish. Finessenreicher als auch schon, wird hervorragend reifen." - Adrian van Velsen (04/2026)
