The 2022 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 88/100 "The 2022 Deyrem Valentin is a potent, brooding Margaux. It shows good depth but is also penalized by huge, searing tannins that clamp down on the mid-palate and finish. It's hard to get past the bruising structure today."

The 2021 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 92/100 “The Deyrem Valentin 2021 is a powerful, earthy Margaux. It offers very good density, with savory notes of worn leather, spices, tobacco, grilled herbs and scorched earth. It's not exactly an elegant expression of Margaux, but there's good depth, which makes me optimistic.”

Vinous (N. Martin - November 2023): 90/100 “The Deyrem Valentin 2021 must be considered a success for the vintage. It has a silty bouquet that harmonizes with black fruits and hints of dark chocolate. It's not powerful, but it's well-defined, and its style is close to that of a Saint-Julien. The palate is medium-bodied, with dark fruit and plum notes and, once again, a touch of dark chocolate. There's a certain trace of oak to assimilate on the finish, so give this Margaux a few more years in bottle.”

The 2020 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (July 2023): 91/100 “A wine of noble elegance, with silky, refined substance. Juicy fruit. This fine classic will evolve well.”

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2022): 90/100 "The 2020 Deyrem Valentin is a powerful, opulent Margaux. Ultimately, this feels a bit pushed, with an oak imprint that has dried out the fruit. I find this lacking in both fruit and freshness." 

The 2018 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - January 2021): 92/100 "The 2018 Deyrem Valentin is very perfumed on the nose, offering blackberry, blueberry, touches of violet petal and light incense aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, a fine bead of acidity, a silky-smooth texture and a vibrant, minerally finish that lingers. This is a gorgeous, finely tuned and precise Margaux That is going to give 20 years of drinking pleasure."

The 2017 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2019): 90/100 "The 2017 Deyrem Valentin has come together nicely during élevage. It remains a bit light in body, and yet all the elements are very nicely balanced throughout. Crushed flowers, sweet red cherry fruit, mint, sweet tobacco and cedar add nuance throughout. There is a lot to like in this approachable, mid-weight Margaux."

See the data sheet

The 2016 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2018): 91/100 "The 2016 Deyrem Valentin is soft, plush and inviting. Dark cherry, chocolate, new leather, licorice and spice are pushed forward in a silky, supple Margaux that offers tremendous near and medium term appeal. Floral notes add brightness on the finish as the 2016 acquires a bit more finesse with time in the glass."

The 2021 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - November 2023): 91/100 “The 2021 La Tour de Mons has a well-defined and fragrant bouquet: black cherries and redcurrant fruit, hints of blood orange coming through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, just a touch of graphite here, cohesive with a precise and quite sapid finish that lingers in the mouth. I liked this en primeur. I like this in bottle. You might like it too.”

See the technical sheet

The 2023 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni – March 2026): 92/100 “The 2023 La Gurgue has really come around since I tasted it from barrel. Heady and boisterous in the glass, the 2023 is seriously impressive. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, licorice, plum and mocha are all dialed up. There's a good amount of Petit Verdot in this blend, and that comes through in the wine's dark, intensely savory character. This powerful, tightly wound Margaux delivers the goods. There's a bit of brawn in the tannins, but nothing time can't soften. Aging was 12 months in a mix of French oak barrels, concrete and amphora.”

Vinous (N. Martin - February 2026): 89/100 "The 2023 La Gurgue has an attractive bouquet with blackberry and violet fruit, just a touch of brown spices. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly hard tannins on the entry. Fine acidity, quite a solid Margaux that just needs to loosen up on the finish."

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2026): 93/100 "The 2023 is delicious, with a great natural fruitiness preserved by skilful ageing that combines different containers and different methods. The wine is well-balanced and supple, revealing a texture of great delicacy. Already a very pleasant bottle."

See the technical sheet

The 2022 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (December 2025): 92/100 "The wines from this small Margaux estate, covering barely 10 hectares and run by Claire Villars-Lurton, are well worth discovering. She applies the same philosophy here as she does to her classified growths, Ferrière and Haut-Bages Libéral. The result is a very elegant wine, carried by a delicate texture and beautiful fruit freshness that already make it very accessible."

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 91/100 "The 2022 La Gurgue offers an intriguing mix of dense, pliant fruit and lifted aromatics that add notable flair. Crushed flowers, mint, spice, blood orange and white pepper are all lifted in the glass. The blend is 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% merlot and 17% Petit Verdot, with the high amount of Petit Verdot lending palpable aromatic presence and an exotic quality. La Gurgue is super distinctive in 2022. I would give this a good bit of aeration, as there is a bit of reduction today. This was raised in once-used barrels, concrete ovals, new oak and amphorae."

The 2021 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 92/100 “This delicate wine includes nearly 20% Petit Verdot in its blend. It is suave on the palate, with a fine grain and subtle, well-integrated tannins, highlighted by the fine ageing, partly in ovoid concrete vats”.

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 91/100 “The 2021 La Gurgue is a bold, juicy Margaux endowed with tons of fruit presence and plenty of immediacy. Succulent dark red cherry, blood orange, spice, mint and tobacco all meld together. La gurgue is a fine choice for drinking now and over the next decade or so.”

The 2023 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni – March 2026): 90/100 “The 2023 Siran is a tasty, easygoing Margaux to drink now and over the next decade or so. Super-ripe black cherry, chocolate, new leather, licorice, menthol and sweet spice are front and center. The 2023 is a fine drink, although I would prefer to see a touch more complexity."

J-M Quarin (March 2026): 92/100 "Dark, beautiful, young and lively colour. Intense nose with ripe, subtle fruit. More meticulous than ever on the palate, accompanied by a fine richness throughout. The wine evolves fragrantly towards a long, flavourful finish. "

Vinous (N. Martin - February 2026): 92/100 "The 2023 Siran has a well-defined and focused bouquet, blackberry and graphite, a little Pauillac in style. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly grainy tannins, but this is well balanced and definitely fresh and vital. Classically styled with good substance on the finish, it retains Margaux-like finesse and silky texture on the finish. Very fine."

The label for the 2021 vintage, signed by British artist Peter Soriano, celebrates the start of space tourism and the exploration of the planet Mars.

The 2021 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 93/100 “With all the Margaux elegance we've come to expect from this vintage. Already seductive, with its velvety side, it will evolve over a decade with no problem.”

Vinous (Neal Martin - November 2023): 91/100 “The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, more black fruit from the 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, touches of graphite and cedar emerging towards the finish. It will drink earlier than other vintages, but it's worth discovering given its price.”

The 2023 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni – March 2026): 92/100 “The 2023 Baron de Brane has developed into a striking wine. Floral top notes meld into a core of blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, incense and dried herbs. Brisk acids perk up the mid-palate on the long, sustained finish. The blend works so well here. Readers will find a Margaux of stature and class.”

J-M Quarin (March 2026): 92/100 "Dark, intense, and vivid color. Superb, very aromatic nose, refined, pure, fruity, floral, and fascinating for a second label. Light and mellow on the palate, with classy texture and lots of flavor. The wine finishes smoothly and is impossible to resist. This is Margaux! The rating has risen sharply since the Primeurs. On a par with the 2022." Outsider

The 2022 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (2026 Guide): 93/100 "It is not to be outdone, a pure fruit pleasure to be enjoyed without haste."

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 92/100 "The 2022 Baron de Brane is gorgeous second wine. Merlot drives the blend, and that comes through in the wine's plush contours and forward, succulent fruit. Black cherry, plum, licorice and menthol all meld together in an effortless wine that is all charm. This is beautifully done."

J.M Quarin (February 2025): 92/100 "Dark, intense colour. Very aromatic nose, subtle for the first time. Smooth on the palate, savoury in the middle, with a melting body, the wine builds gently before shining through with its aromatic brilliance on the finish. Normal length. Delicious overall."

The 2023 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni – March 2026): 95/100 “The 2023 Marquis d'Alesme is sleek and silky right out of the gate. Dark blue-toned fruit, lavender, mocha, licorice and crushed flowers all grace the palate. Margaux at its most delicate.”

J-M Quarin (March 2026): 95/100 "What a wonderful surprise! Tasted three times with consistent results, this wine is a revelation and one of the great successes of the year. Dark, intense colour with bright highlights. Very aromatic, refined, subtle, noble and even complex on the nose. Ultra-precise on the palate, very aromatic in the middle, with a refined richness that coats the palate, constantly velvety, the wine slowly progresses towards a long and complex finish with noble tannins. Bravo!"

Vinous (N. Martin - February 2026): 94/100 "The 2023 Marquis d'Alesme Becker has a well-defined bouquet that blossoms in the glass, beautiful black cherries and blueberry fruit, very floral and perhaps more expressive than the Labégorce. The palate is medium-bodied with silky tannins, quite lush and yet there is superb tension with a caressing, intense finish. Outstanding."

The 2022 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin – January 2026): 92+/100 “The 2022 Marquis d'Alesme Becker has an outgoing, fruit-driven nose: blackberry and boysenberry fruit, violet and light iris flower scents coming through with time. There is just a little oak to be subsumed. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, a little granular in texture, modest weight but cohesive throughout, with a satisfying, white pepper-tinged finish.”

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2026): 94/100 "Built with a spirit that is more powerful than refined, this dense wine has tightened up since the en primeur tasting. The fruit is generous and intense, the mid-palate full, but the finish is, at this stage, marked by abundant tannins. We will have to wait for these to mellow."

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 93/100 "The 2022 Marquis d'Alesme is a heady, voluptuous wine. Dark cherry, plum, mocha, new leather, spice and blood orange all meld together in this succulent, racy Margaux. The 2022 offers tons of immediacy and overall appeal."

J-M Quarin (February 2025): 94/100 "Dark, intense and lively colour. Medium aromatic nose, pure, fruity and subtle. Delicate on the palate, with a classy feel and lots of aromas in the middle, the wine melts, stretches out and finishes sappy, with no tannic angle. Very good."

Bettane + Desseauve (Guide 2026) : 93/100

The 2021 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 93/100 “Fresh and supple, with fine-grained tannins. This classic of the appellation gives pride of place to fruit, with a hint of vanilla”.

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 93/100 “The 2021 Marquis d'Alesme is an elegant, polished wine for the year. Floral and spice notes open first. Dark cherry, plum, spice, menthol, dried herbs, leather and cedar emerge gradually, but it is the wine's balance that impresses most.”

The 2023 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni – March 2026): 94/100 “The 2023 Prieuré-Lichine is seriously impressive. Rich and layered in the glass, the 2023 possesses notable textural richness and elegance. Dark-toned fruit, spice, new leather and licorice flesh out over time. This is an especially rich vintage for Prieuré-Lichine, but it's a style that works so well here. The 2023 impresses with its total sense of balance and harmony."

J-M Quarin (March 2026): 92/100 "It received “my highest score given to this vintage in Primeurs” and this has been confirmed. Dark, intense red colour. Very aromatic nose with ripe fruit. Hint of seaweed. Full-bodied on the attack, flavourful on the mid-palate, very well-structured, the wine retains its richness throughout the tasting. Good sap-like persistence, much more than aromatic. Well-coated tannins. This score makes it the highest quality wine alongside the 2022. Well done!"

Vinous (N. Martin - February 2026): 91/100 "The 2023 Prieuré-Lichine has impressive intensity on the nose: blackberry, cedar and violet scents, the oak neatly integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, crisp acidity, gentle grip with satisfying length on the finish. A little tight compared to others, so be prepared to wait 3 to 5 years."

The 2022 vintage in the press :

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2026) : 95/100 "The 2022 is in a class of its own. It is one of the estate's most serious and accomplished wines and confirms our positive impressions from the en primeur tasting. It has beautiful density, with fruity notes and an elegant floral touch. It also displays a lovely velvety texture and a silky finish with refined tannins."

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025) : 93/100 "The 2022 Prieuré-Lichine is plush, open-knit and quite seductive, as it os often is. Crushed flowers, spice, mint, orange peel and bright, red-toned fruit are all laced together. Silky and medium in body, with lovely finesse, Prieuré-Lichine is quite the charmer. I imagine it will drink well with minimal cellaring."

J.M Quarin (February 2025): 92/100 "It's confirmed: Prieure Lichine is gradually improving in quality. I have never found it so complete since 2005. Dark, intense and youthful colour. Very aromatic nose with ripe, smooth fruit. Mellow on the attack, juicy and velvety on the palate, the wine scores points on the finish when it appears sappy, rich, spicy, long and without any tannic edges. A pleasure."

The 2021 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2026): 93/100 “In the context of the vintage, the 2021 is quite fresh and elegant, with half the power.”

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 92/100 “The 2021 Prieuré-Lichine is a very classy, understated Margaux. The purity of the fruit is quite striking. Succulent red/purplish fruit, rose petal, cinnamon, mint and blood orange are beautifully laced together. Silky tannins wrap it all together in style. Pretty floral top notes grace the finish. This is a fine showing.”

The 2020 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 95/100 “The 2020 is as seductive as ever, with beautiful texture, volume and lots of charm.”

Vinous (N.Martin - January 2024): 92/100 “The first bottle of the 2020 Prieuré-Lichine was corked. The second takes time to unfurl with fine tannins, sapid black fruit, brine and sea salt. There's real salinity here, and it leaves you salivating for more on the finish. This is very promising.”
