Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: A classic in the making: notes of cedar and black truffle, unctuous on the palate, and contrary to the other Leovilles, it seems that the grapes are slightly less ripe here. 18

Michael Schuster: Lovely, freshly ripe fruit on the nose; elegantly balanced, moderately concentrated, with a fresh acidity and, like the Langoa, a fine, restrained tannin in the context of the year; long, gentle, even, sweet-cored St-Julien, not big, but gently classy with very nice light length. good. 2022– 35. 16.5
