JAMES SUCKLING: "Firm and structured with medium body and beautiful dark and blue fruit underneath. Tannins are fine-grained and linear, with some chalky minerality to it. It is seamless and delicate, very attractive and fresh. Long."

DECANTER: "Juicy and lean, fresh with high acidity giving life and energy. Feels sleek and really well worked. Concentrated but this has energy and focus, appealingly constructed with fragrance, freshness and lots of ripe fruit. Round and super enjoyable, even now. Sculpted and cool with an ease of drinkability to it. Tasted three times. Ageing in French oak; 75% new the rest one wine plus 3% amphora. Harvest 5 - 26 September."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "Black and red currants, blackberries, and blue fruit, with a touch of espresso and a floral edge create the perfume. The wine is rich, soft, fresh, elegant and medium-bodied, finish with layers of creamy fruits with a cocoa edge to the endnote in the finish. Drink from 2027-2050."

JEB DUNNUCK: "The deep purple/plum-hued 2022 Château Dauzac is another medium to full-bodied, balanced, elegant Margaux in the vintage that has some smoky background oak, classy notes of darker blue fruits, violets, and chocolate, ripe yet present tannins, and outstanding length. The balance is spot-on here, and it's going to have a lengthy, broad drink window."

WEINWISSER: "Verhaltener Beginn, zarte rotbeerige Konturen, Graphit und heller Tabak. Am geradlinigen trainierten Gaumen mit seidiger Textur, engmaschigem Tanningerüst, gut stützender Rasse. Im gebündelten Finale verschlankt sich der Margaux mit roten Johannisbeeren, dunkler Mineralik und feinmürbem Extrakt mit kernigen Noten im Untergrund. 2029 – 2049."
