94/100 points, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider, May 2023
"Incredibly composed and vibrant in the sensory profile shows notes of black plums, blackberries, dark chocolate, sage, bay leaves and marjoram. Lots of black olives describe the secondary scene. Full body, dense and compact in the sensory profile shows grace and precision of execution. Better from 2026."
95/100 points, Raffaele Vecchione - WinesCritic.com, December 2024
"Great depth, well judged and balanced, plenty of character, crisp mint leaf, cassis, blueberry, cocoa bean, espresso, this is seriously enjoyable, clear tannic frame and great ageing potential, ripe but measured, it’s one to look out for and very easy to recommend. A classic 94 point Buy signal. 35% new French oak barrels, great stuff from Edouard Miailhe and winemaker Marjolaine Defrance. The label for 2022 is a tribute to Queen Elizabeth, for any royal fans out there…" Drink 2028-2046
