Vinum: "Zurückhaltend fruchtig, mit Akzenten von Gewürzen und Kräutern; beginnt besonders geschmeidig, entwickelt gemächlich nicht nur Dichte und Tiefe, sondern auch mineralischen Schliff dank erstklassiger, perfekt integrierter Gerbstoffe, und kaum spürbarem Alkohol, endet sehr lang, auf den fruchtig-würzigen Noten der Nase. Gehört einmal mehr zu den grossen Weinen des Jahres."

Decanter: "Intensely aromatic on the nose, perfumed and ripely fruited. Concentrated and nicely fleshy on the palate, the tannins give a bounce to the expression against the salty, blue fruits combined with freshness and juicy acidity. A little bit massy and forward still but this has lovely details, and you don't feel they've over extracted at all. Still has that touch of Pomerol glamour to it, deep with quite an intense initial taste that settles and expands with time in the glass towards a lovely airy, lifted finish. Lots of potential here. Tasted twice. Technical director Guillaume Fredoux and managing director Vincent Priou."

James Suckling: "Very linear and fine-tannined with a salty and white pepper character. Racy and chewy tannins but not overdone. Really spicy. Tight and focused. Fresh. 67% merlot, 27% cabernet franc, and 6% cabernet sauvignon."

The Wine Cellar Insider: "Black cherries, flowers, citrus, and cocoa create the nose. On the palate, the wine is silky, elegant, fresh, and lusciously-textured. The finish, with its layers of chocolate-infused plums, and black cherries, with just a hint of spice, and espresso at the end really hit the spot. Beauregard is clearly on a roll, and this is their best vintage yet! Drink from 2025-2042."
