The Wine Cellar Insider: Medium-bodied, fruity, forward, and juicy, the black currants, and blackberries are ripe, fleshy, and round-textured. The creamy finish continues along the same vein with more of those sweet, vibrant, dark berries. This will be just great with a year or two of aging. Drink from 2029-2042."

James Suckling: A medium- to full-bodied, delineated Saint Estephe, with appealing freshness and precision. Incisive and focused, it offers notes of blackberries, black cherries, and a hint of graphite. The tannins are fine and the finish is long, showcasing the wine's structure and elegance. pH 3.65, 13.5% alcohol."

Jane Anson: Small berries for the Cabernet Franc this year, particularly impacted by the yields of the vintage because this vineyard has many recent plantings as well as several particularly old vines; so impact at both sides. Clear intensity and spice, fragrant and concentrated, acidity a little overly marked."
