95 points Robert Parker (Wine Advocate): "A fabulous wine made by young proprietor Jean-Philippe Janoueix, with the assistance of the celebrated oenologist, Michel Rolland, this 12-acre estate (not far from Vieux-Chateau-Certan and Le Pin) has produced an inky/purple-tinged 2005 offering a gorgeous bouquet of spring flowers, blackberry and blueberry liqueur, espresso roast, chocolate, cedar, and spice box. High tannin, sensational richness, and a multilayered mouthfeel are the result of a blend of 96% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc. This gorgeous, opulent Pomerol should be ready to drink in 4-5 years. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2030. (Apr 2008)"

92 points Wine Spectator: "Shows blackberry, chocolate and vanilla aromas. Full-bodied, with beautiful tannins and wonderful, juicy fruit. Firm and structured. Voluptuous, but very toned. Best after 2011. (3/31/09)"

92 points Jeff Leve (The Wine Cellar Insider): "Round, soft and plummy, with an open, smoky, espresso, black cherry, earth and plum filled core of fruit, the wine is soft, silky and earthy, but there is still some oak that need to become better integrated into the wine. (Jun 2015)"
