94 points Decanter Bright ruby and damson fruits, violet-tinged, this is just gorgeous. Plump rich fruit, softened by just over a decade in bottle. It has gentle woodsmoke and earth rounding out the already softened tannins, and overall just a juicy, rich wine that is packed full of Pomerol seduction. (JA) (4/2020)

93 points James Suckling Ripe and exotic wine with lots of ripe fruit such as plum and berry. Chocolate too. Full body, chewy tannins and a long finish. Walnut. Chocolate finish. Decadent. (7/2017)
