Michel Bettane and Thierry Desseauve: Beautifully defined floral aromatics, with delicate notes of black truffle; ample, suave, and deep, with elegant length. a very nice, unctuous wine. 17

Michael Schuster: Very marked by its oak on the nose at the moment; a rich middleweight, with more harmony than this property has had for some time; lively acidity and the characteristic firm but not coarse tannin; sweet ripe fruit of medium depth, crisply defined by the wine’s acidity, quite fragrant, almost floral in its scents, a gentle complexity, and with good, delicately scented length. Still quite muscular, but more refined than usual. 2023–35+. 16
