Alex Hunt: Crisp, flavorsome Moulin-à-Vent with good definition and balance, but a certain lack of depth versus the expectations for this particular cru. Effective but on the simple side. 84
Andrew Jefford: Dark, dense black-red. There’s just a touch of old-style banana in the scent of this wine, but lots of sweet cherry too and overall the effect has charm. Generous, sweet, exuberant, a touch rough and ready in style, but with so much to offer that to quibble about a lack of finesse seems beside the point. Gutsy and energetic Moulin-à-Vent for the mid-term. 90
Peter Liem: This is dark in tone and a little onedimensional for now, thriving more on its ripeness of fruit than anything else. Its depth and structure are indicative of the cru, but it doesn’t feel entirely complete. 83
