Andrew Jefford: Dark black-red. Warm red cherry with just a hint of box and capsicum; sweet, too. Simple pleasures here. Impressively deep and ripe compared to many of its Pessac-Léognan peers, with fewer green tones; firm supporting tannins. A good effort. Now to 2020. 86

Michael Schuster: Densely fruity on the nose; rich middleweight with a crisp acidity and light, dry tannin; crisp, savory, red-fruit flavor, within a light dry tannin texture; some length of flavor and a nice length of aftertaste, too; a tasty lesser expression of Graves, which would be very nice with food now, and for another few years. Now to 2023. 86
