Alex Hunt:This has good elderberry depth: a little inky and chewy, but satisfyingly full-flavored in a light/medium-bodied style. 86

Andrew Jefford:Deep, dark black-red. Sweet, warm, disarmingly lovely raspberry fruits apparent here, and a swirl of cream, too—fine aromas. Beautifully packed out with fruit, this is a superb St-Amour with lots of finesse and purity and lovely debonair sweetness. The backing tannins are exemplary yet discreet. Delicious wine. 91

Peter Liem:Fragrant and ripe, this contrasts bright, high-toned fruit with stern tannins, feeling youthful and tense. While it isn’t terribly complex, it feels lively and harmonious and promises to develop with time. 88
