Excellent but expensive Merlot. Nice bottle flavor with chocolate and licorice, finishing with smooth tannins and tar. Leave open one hour before consuming. — 2 months ago

2020 vintage. The last vintage for this wine as it was bought from the Bécot family ( owners of Beauséjour-Bécot) by the owners of Haut-Brion in 2021. It will be incorporated into Château Quintus (which is a merger of 3 estates: Tertre-Daugay, L'Arrosée and Grand-Pontet). Many Saint-Emilion estates disappeared, incorporated into other estates, some very good wines sadly disappeared like Curé Bon La Madeleine (now into Canon), Cadet-Piola (now into Soutard) and so on. The fact that Grand Cru Classés can legally be incorporated into Premier Grands Crus Classés tells you that you have to take the classification with more than a grain of salt. A bit shy on the nose, even after a few hours. Medium-bodied, nice value for a Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé. — 2 years ago

Deep dark nose of bloody cornas, wow what a nose, juicy and sleek and clear. lovely, slippery red fruits and wonderful texture and opulence for a 21. So silky. Great purity and sap. Great minerals and inner mouth aromas and sicko depth. Fantastic. 9.6. Wow wow wow. So bright and energetic. Amazing length. what a mineral nose, really elegant and red fruited. Good ripe tannins. Love the crystalline fruit. — 2 years ago

Very spritely nose shows lots of confectionery cherry and crushed granite. In the mouth it’s got, well, “spritely” acids to propel its high-toned cherry fruit along. Not that concentrated, but it’s got an interesting finish that shows a little tannin and a slight bitter note to keep it real. This is very food-flexible. — 5 months ago
