2017 vintage rated 88+/100 by Neal Martin "The palate is powerful and dense with saturated tannins, ostentatious towards the finish. What happened to the tenderness that I remarked upon out of barrel? The final bottle tasted on my last day had a joie-de-vivre that I admire so maybe patience is simply required". (Feb. 2020)

2014 vintage rated 94/100 by La Revue du Vin de France "Il y a un côté Nebbiolo du Haut-Piémont dans ce vin pourtant parfaitement typé par le plateau calcaire de Saint-Émilion... Matière légère, accessible, très agréable, sans qu'elle cherche ni la profondeur ni la puissance. Il s'affine encore à l'aération, laissant un sillage très harmonieux". (Nov. 2020)
