93 points (16.5/20) La Revue du Vin de France: "The sweetness provided by the wood and the slightly tight character of the ageing do not detract from the potential of cuvee Alexandrine: its ample, mellow, rather vigorous texture has the scope to evolve into a very harmonious wine. (2019)"
92 points/'Outstanding/Top value,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(made 100% from tiny 'millerandage' grapes, or shot berries, which give much higher solid to liquid ratios; it is not made every vintage). There is just enough reduction present to warrant giving this a thorough aeration if you're going to try a bottle young. Otherwise there is outstanding mid-palate concentration to the very rich and relatively full-bodied flavors that brim with sappy dry extract that buffer the firm finish that is beautifully complex and sneaky long. This is sufficiently tightly wound to merit extended cellaring yet I suspect that it will also be reasonably approachable young if that's your fruit preference. Drink: 2024+. (Jan 2018)"
