TIM ATKIN 95 POINTS - "This has a head-turning aroma with freshly-turned earth, ripe black fruits and spiced chocolate. The tannins are chewy and firm, doing more of the structuring than the notably fresh acidity. Like the other Premier Crus, this has about 25-30% new oak, but the oak feels a bit more prominent here. There is plenty of stuffing, including a hint of viscosity, to allow the structure to seep into the fruit in time."
JASPER MORRIS 93 - 95 POINTS - "A glowing crimson colour. There is an impressive volume of fruit on the nose. Medium weight, lively raspberry and strawberry with a certain sweetness of fruit indicating a decent ripeness level. This does fill the mouth very juicily, the vintage enlivening the finish. Drink from 2027-2035."
