Score 88+/100 · Drink 2021-2030, Neal Martin, Oct 2018

The 2016 d’Aurilhac has a rather dour bouquet that needs more vivacity and vigour. It feels a little leaden compared to its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, a fine line of acidity, smooth in texture with an attractive finish. Like the 2016 Arnauld, if the aromatics can improve, it will merit a higher score. Tasted at the Cru Bourgeois tasting in London.

Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2018-2022, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Sep 2018

49% Merlot, 46% Cabernet Sauvginon, 2.5% Petit Verdot, 2.5% Cabernet Franc. Slight drainage notes on the nose and palate. Raw fruit, with good technical balance but a certain crudeness to the flavour profile. For the price, this is perhaps forgiveable – although it is up against stiff competition from other countries.

Quite intense and juicy with some red pimento powder aroma. Lots of breadth and fun even if far from the most concentrated on the palate. Racy. (JR)
