Michel Bettane:Good color, discrete nose, medium body; light, charming, classical Margaux texture; not a lot of grip and complexity, but elegance is there. 15.5
Thierry Desseauve: Very elegant, very Margaux; not the most powerful wine of the tasting but one of the most gentle. Pure and fine. 16
Michael Schuster:Light, fresh, sweet Cabernet Sauvignon nose; dryly tannic medium-weight, where the new-oak texture rather overwhelms the delicate, fresh fruit, making the overall impression “dry” and a bit pinched. Finishes short. Leave for several years to absorb its wood tannin. 2014–20. 13.5
