Wine Enthusiast: "92–94. Barrel Sample. Packed with ripe, dense fruits, this wine is structured and full of black plum flavors. It is rich while guarding the freshness of the vintage. The wine is already well balanced."

Decanter: "Dark chocolate touches on the nose are so appealing with violets and blackcurrants. Juicy and lively at first with the liquorice and clove elements just closing the palate slightly into a more focused and linear style, rather than being overly expansive. Tannins are fine and soft, and this has a lovely graceful appeal despite the cool, austere touches, giving it a closed feel right now. Michel Rolland consultancy."

Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2021 Château Chauvin will be terrific and is certainly outstanding. Giving up a subtle yet impressive bouquet of both red and black fruits as well as spicy oak, it's medium to full-bodied, has ripe tannins, beautiful overall balance, and a great finish. Give it a few years and it should evolve for 15+."

Falstaff: "Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart tabakig, rote Kirschen, Preiselbeeren, dezente mineralische Nuancen. Schlank, rote Kirschen, rassiger Säurebogen, gut integrierte Tannine, zart nach Nelken, salziger Abgang."
