Michel Bettane: Noble red-fruit aromas, elegant texture, racy tannins, wine of style and dignity. The best I can remember from here and up to the quality of this top-rank terroir 17.5

Thierry Desseauve: Superb nose: red fruits and fine spices; elegant, refined body; delicacy, subtlety 17.5

Michael Schuster: Light but fine-fruited nose; nicely balanced, lighter St-Emilion style, with a still noticeably dry oak tannin texture, but a fine, pure core fruit and good light length. Finesse rather than power, but a bit dry-edged. 2015–20+ 15.5
