‘This is good quality, balanced, classic claret, enjoyable brambleld fruit with cocan bean and espresso notes. New owner Gérard Jicquel since 2019 (he also bought Château d'Agassac this year). 30hl/ha yield, 25% new oak for ageing. 2024-2034’ – Jane Anson, janeanson.com, 89/100
‘Lightly framed with a certain push of red fruits - strawberries and red cherries, there is good juiciness on the palate in a light way, clean and clear but lots of chalky, dry tannins that make the impact right now, and closes down the fruit. There’s a also a lot of wood, cedar which loses some push and excitement. But there is style here, it’s classic and well weighted, just needs harmonising slightly. Good freshness and minty herbal aspects on the finish. 2024-2032’ – Georgina Hindle, Decanter, 89/100
