Michel Bettane:Dark color, severe and discrete nose, more body and extract than Bouscaut; classical type, very young and unyielding. Wait. 15.5

Thierry Desseauve:Red fruit and tobacco, good balance with a soft flesh and fine tannins. Not very tense or powerful, but fine, elegant, classic Graves. 16

Michael Schuster:Still pretty closed to smell; firmly tannic medium-full wine, supple in its acidity, firm in its tannins; ripe fruit of medium depth and moderate complexity, nicely balanced overall, but firmness needing several more years in bottle. 2015–22+. 15
