"A tight and focused Pessac with crushed berry, cherry and some orange and lemon. Medium-bodied with firm tannins and a juicy finish."

93 Jane Anson

"This is easily one of the most interesting reds in Pessac in this vintage, showing finesse, grip, good tannins, subdued but present blueberry and raspberry fruits, savoury but full of finesse and juice, cloves and white pepper. Impressive winemaking, rises above the vintage although you should not expect exuberance but careful control, and I would err on the side of caution and drink within 10 to 15 years to make the most of the fruit. 40hl/h yield. Tasted twice."

93 Decanter

"Lovely nose of sour cherry, caramel, roses and blackcurrants; so expressive. Dense and chewy fruit on the palate - this has a succulence and sweet softness which is appealing. It's lightly framed, not dense or weighty but has excellent clarity and precision: clear, linear with tension and drive. It's focused and all in one stream right now but I love the juiciness, the texture and the minerality. Will be good to see how the ageing expands the palate. A clear Pessac success in the vintage!"
