92 points James Suckling: "Crushed-blackcurrant, plum, ink, graphite and licorice aromas. Lemon-zest and saline notes, too. It’s medium-bodied with sleek, tight tannins and fresh acidity. Fresh, clean finish. Linear and fine. Better in 2024, but already very attractive. (1/24/21)"

89-91 points Lisa Perrotti-Brown (Wine Advocate): "Deep purple-black colored, the 2018 Mauvais Garcon ("bad boy") is a little closed to begin, giving way to notes of freshly crushed black plums, warm blackberries and boysenberries with wafts of tobacco, fallen leaves and garrigue. Full-bodied, concentrated and built like a brick house, it has a solid frame of chewy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing long and savory. (4/23/19)"

90 points Jeb Dunnuck: "A beautiful, undeniably delicious effort from Jean-Luc Thunevin, the 2018 Bad Boy sports a deep ruby/purple hue to go with lots of juicy black cherry and black berry fruits as well as a touch of earth, cedar, and tobacco. Readers looking for a value-priced, delicious Bordeaux that has plenty of charm, character, and class should snatch up bottles. It's ideal for drinking over the coming 2-4 years. Drink: 2021-2025.
