Michel Bettane: Good color, with a brownish edge; round, ripe, very easy to like; nice tannins, nice oak balance, not the utmost complexity! Well made, secure. 16.5

Thierry Desseauve: Dark color; toast, black and blue berries, intense and generous body; a not very elegant but powerful wine. 16

Michael Schuster: Light, sweet nose; nicely balanced, moderately concentrated, finely tannic lightweight; very pleasing, ripe, fresh flavor; good fruit core, some complexity, nice light fruit length; very pleasing, well-made, harmonious St-Emilion; excellent at the level. Now–2016. 15.5
