Vinum: Tiefdunkle Farbe, schwarze Beerenfrucht, Pflaumen, Weihnachtsgewürze, dunkle Schokolade, Tabaknoten; dichter Gaumen, fast schon zwei Mund voll Wein, die reife Frucht wird von pudrigen Tanninen getragen, mächtig, dennoch mit Eleganz und einem langen, salinen Finish. Finessenreicher als auch schon, wird hervorragend reifen."

Falstaff: Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Zart floral unterlegte, reife Zwetschkenfrucht, ein Hauch von Cassis, Lakritze, Nuancen von Mandarinenzesten. Saftig, frische schwarze Beerenfrucht, feine Tannine, mineralisch, Kirschen im Abgang, ein leichtfüßig wirkender, frischer Speisenbegleiter."

Decanter: Crushed tobacco and plum aromas are followed through on the palate, but the tannin seems to dominate just a bit! I like the ripe fruit profile with pleasing aromatics, even if they are not as effusive as some of its Fronsac peers."

Jeb Dunnuck: Plenty of ripe black and red fruits, tons of graphite, melted crayon, and nicely integrated oak all emerge from the 2025 Château Moulin Haut-Laroque, a solid Fronsac effort that unquestionably offers pleasure. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, has the vintage's focused style, ripe tannins, and outstanding length."

The Wine Cellar Insider: Flowers, cinnamon, red pit fruits, and berries accented with licorice from the character here. The wine is medium-bodied, soft, gentle, and creamy, with lingering, sweet, cherry notes in the finish. This should deliver pleasure on release, and for at least 10 to 12 years. Drink from 2028-2040."
