Score 15/20 · Drink 2015-2017, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, Jan 2015
Very pale gold. Scented and honeyed aroma. Smells like a sweet wine, barley sugar, but tastes fully dry. Almondy citrus, clean and a little lean but the acidity is well integrated here. A bit of heat on the finish. Rather tired and some oily spice on the finish. (JH)

Quality has not necessarily always lived up to this property’s Fourth Growth status, however there have been significant improvements in recent years, with a sustainable focus in the vineyard, and new winery and cellar.
