FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Feines Edelholz, zart nach Lakritze, etwas Weichsel, rote Waldbeeren, einladendes Bukett. Saftig, hochelegant, finessenreicher Säurebogen, seidige Tannine, mineralisch und lange anhaftend, ein delikater Wein von Länge, Präzision und Potenzial, ein anmutiger Speisenbegleiter."

JAMES SUCKLING: "The concentration of fruit here is formidable, with blackberries, blueberries and hints of cedar and flowers. Full-bodied, yet with a refined and polished texture and a flavorful finish. Cool character to this."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2023 Soutard is likely to rival or even surpass the brilliant 2022. Offering up aromas of mulberries, raspberries and plums mingled with hints of violet, licorice and spice, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, with a dense and seamless core of vibrant, perfumed fruit and a long, mineral finish. As restructured parcels return to production, Soutard is increasingly emerging as one of Saint-Émilion's finest estates."
