The 2014 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - February 2024): 93/100 “The 2014 Cos d'Estournel has a wonderful bouquet. Compared directly with Montrose, there is a notch more exuberance and precision, with layers of rich but delineated plummy black fruit laced with rose petals and dark chocolate. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins. There's a lovely depth of fruit and a sense of symmetry plus sapidity that compels you back for more. Silky texture, this is a Cos d'Estournel that will give a lot of pleasure ine the coming years.”

J-M Quarin (June 2018): 94/100 “Caressing on the attack, tasty in the mid-palate, a tad austere yet pleasant, the wine finishes tasty and a little more marked by tannin than others. Good length."

The 2012 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2024): 95/100 “All elegance and refinement.”

Vinous (N. Martin - January 2022): 92/100 "The 2012 Cos d'Estournel has a perfumed bouquet with blackberry, cedar, undergrowth and black pepper aromas all well-defined and focused, with more vigour than many of its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, good acidity, maybe a tad strict and dry on the finish, yet I admire its intensity and terroir expression. There was some bottle variation here, one bottle dominated by wood, the other more typical Cos d'Estournel with plenty of fruit."

J-M Quarin (June 2018): 94/100 “Soft from the attack, juicy in the middle palate, melting, enveloping and powerful, very tasty, even if the tannin is a bit present, the wine finishes long and sappy.”

See the data sheet

The 2010 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - March 2018): 97/100 "The 2010 Cos d'Estournel has long been my preference over the 2009. That vintage kowtowed to the crowd and yes, to critics. The 2010 is less compromising but more intellectual. It has a scintillating, pixelated bouquet with intense black fruit, asphalt and mint aromas - vivid and bright, much more focused and certainly less flmaboyant than the 2009. The palate is medium-bodied with a huge chassis; a Saint-Estèphe clearly built for the long-term with enormous grip and enthralling tension. As before, there is a liberal sprinkling of white pepper towards the finish and is exceptionnally long. The 2010 is the finest Cos d'Estournel until the more finessed 2016 comes along. It is a deeply impressive wine but it will appeal more to those that prefer classic Bordeaux to one boasting tons of fruit, as pleasurable as that might be."

See the technical sheet

The 2022 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 90/100 "The 2022 Fugue de Nénin is soft, open-knit and very pretty. Crushed flowers, bright, red-toned fruit, white pepper and spice are nicely lifted in this attractive, mid-weight Pomerol from Nenin."

See the data sheet

The 2020 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (October 2024): 90/100 “The wine is carried by the vitality of its fruit and an ageing process that gives it citrus scents. An invigorating expression of 2020."

See the data sheet

The 2022 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 92/100 "The 2022 Mazeyres is aromatic, bold and racy. Crushed flowers, sage, mint, spice, many of them in cooler spots within Pomerol, which was certainly a help in 2022. As a result, this retained terrific energy. Lifted floral and savory notes extend the clean, bracing finish."

The 2021 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 92/100 “This Pomerol is a must-have. We find the château's signature style, with the brilliance of fruit that characterizes it.”

Vinous (N.Martin - November 2023): 89/100 “The 2021 Mazeyres has a light nose with brambly red fruit, tertiary scents and forest floor, nicely defined if just missing a bit of vigor. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a sweet and candied opening and fine acidity, blueberry and cassis hints surfacing toward the floral finish. It has a brightness that is perhaps absent in some of its Pomerol peers.”

See the data sheet

The 2018 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2023): 94/100 “Even in the sunniest vintages, the wines retain admirable freshness. Mazeyres 2018 is a brilliant example of this, fitting perfectly into this dynamic of primacy of fruit. Already very appealing, the wine nevertheless possesses real potential for evolution.”

See the data sheet

The 2016 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2018): 91/100 "The 2016 Mazeyres presents an exotic profile laced with bright, high-toned aromatic and super-ripe red fruits. Blood orange, mint and floral notes all run through the wine this a decidedly overt style of pomerol and yet the 2016 remains gracious and medium in body, with the perfume that is typical of sandier soils."

See the data sheet

The 2015 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2017): 91/100 "The 2015 Mazeyres is pretty, savory wine with quite a bit of aromatic intensity that matches its mid-weight personality well. Crushed flowers, mint, rose petal, tobacco and sweet red cherry are all nicely delineated. Silky tannins add finesse to this approachable, mid-weight Pomerol."

See the technical sheet

The 2022 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 93/100 "The 2022 Bellegrave is powerful, vibrant Pomerol. Graphite, new leather, dark fruit and lavender unfurl in the glass. The 2022 has plenty of energy to match its broas, ample feel. Even with all of its obvious intensity. Bellegrave is so expressive. The blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc works well."

Rated 91/100 by N. MARTIN «The 2020 Bellegrave is well-defiened and poised on the nose, blackberry and briary, hints of truffle unfolding with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with a graphite-infused entry. Quite solid and structured, almost like a "mini-Lafleur", with a well-definied and persistent finish that has a splendid minerality. Very Fine » (December 2022)

The 2020 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - December 2022): 91/100 “Bellegrave 2020 is well defined and balanced on the nose, with aromas of blackberry and brioche, and hints of truffle that develop with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied, with an entry marked by graphite. Very solid and structured, almost like a “mini-Lafleur”, with a well-defined, persistent finish featuring splendid minerality. Very fine”.

The 2018 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2024): 90/100 “The commitment to great maturity becomes more pronounced as the 2018 evolves. The concentration and velvety flesh command admiration.”

Vinous (A. Galloni - March 2021): 93/100 "The 2018 Rouget is not going to win any prizes for subtlety, but it sure is delicious. Racy and flamboyant to the core, the 2018 saturates the palate with super-ripe red fruit, mocha, spice and copious new French oak. I would give the tannins a few years to soften. There is certainly a lot to look forward to. Readers should expect a dense, heady style."

See the data sheet

The 2017 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (November 2021): 92/100 “Hedonistic, very ripe for 2017, the vintage offers unrestrained opulent yet nuanced expression. The aromas are voluble (smoky red pepper, cocoa, cinnamon and many other spices), the framework fine in its mellow development. Enjoy this major success of the vintage now!"

Vinous (Antonio Galloni - March 2020): 95/100 “The 2017 Rouget is a real masterstroke. Aromatically explosive, profound and irresistibly beautiful, the 2017 has much to offer. Aromas of black fruits, lavender, bittersweet chocolate, spice and licorice develop as this sumptuous exotic beauty unfolds its full allure. The 2017 is not at all subtle, but it's certainly gorgeous.”

See the data sheet

The 2016 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - January 2021): 90/100 "The 2016 Rouget has a generous, quite opulent bouquet featuring cedar and touches of dark chocolate; a light truffle scent bubbles up with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and a little lactic in style, the oak just a little prominent toward the rather hard finish. This is one of the most extrovert and ambitious Pomerol crus."

The 2021 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2023): 93/100 “Naturally more accessible than its big brother, it charms us with its definition, its supple mid-palate and its generous pulp, the signature of the family's wines.”

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 92/100 “The 2021 La Petite Eglise is an intriguing wine, although it naturally lacks the dynamic energy of the best years. Succulent red cherry, blood orange, cinnamon, new leather, spice and cedar all meld together. Gracious and supple, with tons of charm, La Petite Eglise is quite seductive in 2021.”

See the technical sheet

The 2022 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 92/100 "The 2022 La Gravette de Certan, 100% Merlot, is quite the powerhouse. Almost shockingly ripe and intense by the estate's standards, La Gravette is not exacty subtle. It does offer tons of immediacy. Gravette is mostly young vines planted in 2010, with one parcel that touches Lafleur and the other next to Le Pin, plus about 4% of press fractions. Succulent dark cherry/plum fruit, new leather, licorice, spice and new leather are all dialed up to the maximum. La Gravette is a bit over the top in 2022, but who cares?"

The 2021 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 93/100 Coup de ♥ “La Gravette, a selection of young Merlot vines, enchants us with its sapidity and gourmandise. The wine benefits from an almost Ligerian acid support, underlining millimetric tannins and intense salinity.”

Vinous (A. Galloni - February 2024): 92/100 “The Gravette de Certan 2021 is 100% Merlot from the estate's youngest vines. Supple, soft and quite approachable, the 2021 is a pleasant wine to drink now and over the next decade. Red/purple fruits, lavender, mocha and spices are in the spotlight.”

See the data sheet

The 2021 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 92/100 “The 2021 Nénin is soft, curvy and ready to go, rushing forth with a burst of dark red cherry, blood orange, spice, menthol and cedar. Nénin is not the most potent or complex Pomerol for the year, but all the elements are impeccably balanced. In 2021, this is a wine of pure and total pleasure, a wine more for the senses than for the intellect. The creamy finish is a thing of beauty.”

See the data sheet :

The 2019 vintage in the press:

J-M Quarin (March 2022): 94/100 “Dark, intense, vivid color. Very aromatic nose, with ripe yet fresh fruit. Distinctive tannic support on the palate, with great taste, a hint of truffle and a long, aromatic finish. Very good.”

Vinous (N. Martin -February 2022): 93/100 “The 2019 Nénin is the first vintage with a wax seal in the bottle, so you have been warned! Apparently the wax is one that does not crumble everywhere. This Pomerol retains the definition and focus that discerned from barrel, coming across quite energetic with pretty Merlot fruit - raspberry coulis, red currant and hints of black truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe tannins and well-judged acidity, nothing too heavy or dense. A more elegant Nénin compared to previous vintages, with good persistence on the finish. This is well worth seeking out."

See the data sheet

The 2017 vintage in the press:

La Revue du Vin de France (November 2021): 92/100 “Straightforward and long, slender, it still shows a slight rigidity that in one year has nevertheless softened. the brightness of its crisp fruit is undeniable.”

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2020): 92/100 “The 2017 Nénin is super-expressive and energetic, with tons of  Cabernet Franc character driving its profile. Rose petal, mint, crushed flowers and savory herbs give the 2017 its distinctly aromatic profile. Because of frost, the Cabernet Franc plays a larger role in the blend, and that most definitely comes through. Although a bit eccentric, Nénin is wonderfully nuanced and alluring in 2017.”

See the data sheet

The 2014 vintage in the press:

Vinous (N. Martin - February 2018): 92/100 "The 2014 Nénin has a simple, clean redcurrant and cranberry scented bouquet that feels a little anonymous, does not quite exude Pomerol. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, nicely balanced with red cherry, cranberry and raspberry laced with black pepper and sage. The finish feels cohesive and perisitent. This is a fine Pomerol."

The 2022 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 95/100 "The 2022 Feytit-Clinet is dark, pliant and expressive. Dark red fruit, blood orange, spice, cedar, new leather and a kiss of French oak all build in the glass. The 2022 shows all the natural richness that is typical of Feytit-Clinet, but with brighter fruit, more freshness and less barrel toast impact that was once the norm. This opens beautifully over time, offering a captivating interplay of finesse and power."

J.M Quarin (February 2025): 92/100 "Dark, intense and beautiful colour. Very aromatic, fruity, subtle and fragrant nose. It develops vanilla on a background of black fruit. And this perfume is found on the palate, with a lovely touch and a juicy, melting body that grows on the finish. It's very good and very hard to spit out."

The 2021 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 92/100 “The 2021 Feytit-Clinet is a pretty understated release for this property, where the wines are often larger in scale. Soft contours wrap around a core og plum, red cherry, spice, new leather and white pepper. As it was en primeur, the 2021 is a relatively open-knit, accessible Feytit-Clinet that will drink well with minimal cellaring. sweet floral and spice notes grace the silky finish.”

The 2020 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2022): 95/100 "The 2020 Feytit-Clinet is a brooding, powerful wine. Blackberry jam, graphite, licorice, incense, spice and espresso saturate the palate with tremendous depth. As always, Feytit Clinet is a wine of vertical structure. There's plenty of tannins, but they are pretty much buried by the sheer intensity of the fruit. This is compelling."

The 2018 vintage in the press:

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2022): 95/100 "The 2018 Feytit-Clinet is exquisite. Inky dark fruit, gravel, spice, menthol, licorice, mint and lavender are some of the many aromas and flavors that develop as the 2018 shows off its compelling, totally unique personality. In most recent vintages, Feytit-Clinet has been explosive and quite powerful. The 2018 doesn't quite have that energy, but its (relatively) suave personality will make it easy to enjoy with only a few years in bottle. I loved it."
