Michael Schuster: Dense and mineral to smell; rich, fleshy, fresh, very finely, but firmly, tannic; sweet in fruit, very long across the palate, complex, aromatic, full of interest, vital, persistent, and with a great aromatic finish. A particularly sweet flavor, and a particularly polished fleshiness, all beautifully contained and defined by its freshness. For the second year running an exceptionally fine Clerc Milon and d’Armailhac pair. 2030–36+.92–93

Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: Very dense color, imposing body, great freshness in the mouth, a true success.96
