" .... The following ... red wines represente the creme de la creme of my tastings from such appellations ... These wines are very fine, for the most part are humbly priced, and are made by highly motivated, sometimes compulsive / obsessive proprietors ... These wines ... yet frequently compete with wines selling for two to three times as much."
Robert Parker "Guide PARKER des vins de Bordeaux" Edition 2005

"This carefully made wine confirms that it is one to follow: ample, beefy body, mature and precise fruit, long and profound " - Fine Wine." Deep, dense crimson clour. Very concentrated bouquet of blackberry, intertwined with tobacco. On the palate, the wine is both lush and juicy, with heaps of ripe fruit and an almost creamy finish. Well on its way to the top " - Weinwisser." A good, balanced red with blackberry and wet earth character. Medium to full bodied, with velvety tannins and a medium finish "

- Wine Spectator.

One of the best terroirs in the appellation, on a hilltop with gravel soils overlooking the Garonne estuary." Big spicy wine with lots of liquorice fruit, smooth with good vineyard depth, very attractive." - Decanter Aromas of spices, berries and hints of currants with vanilla. Full-bodied, with lovely, silky tannins and a fresh finish. Already so delicious. One of the best from here "

- Wine Spectator

"Quite dense, Rich, ripe extract. Oak a little imposing at the moment but the fruit is there " - Decanter. Aromas of blackberry and dark chocolate follow through to a full bodied palate, with fine tannins and a very long finish. Very well done for this estate" - Wine Spectator " Aromatic sweet black fruit, some ripe damson, richly fruited mid-palate, firm fine tannins and well sustained. Riper fruit style than many from this region, well balanced by acidity and tannins."

- Jancis Robinson.

"... This wine shows a wonderful character of berry and spices with hints of toasted oak and chocolate. Full and round. Very nicely done."

"exceptionally deep crismon. Some (top quality) oak on the nose and some rather luscious ripe black cherry aromas. A lot of work and thought has gone into this wine.Quite powerful and no shortage of fruit..."
