February 7, 2021 - Despite being young, there’s only hints of black fruit, it’s an austere style, decently balanced, medium finish. Doesn’t leave a deep impression, but well drinking enough for regular consumption. I’d rather go with other Pauillac fifths (including the incomparable pontet canet and lynch Bages)

September 21, 2019 - Sharp tannins and on the lean, cranberry side of the style range the wine is a solid example of old-school, classic Bordeaux.

February 25, 2019 - Amsterdam UGCB Tasting and Winemakers' Dinner (Beurs van Berlage / Café De Klepel): Attractive, slender style but not underripe or underpowered, vibrant fruit, slightly old school, firm but ripe tannins.
