Wine Spectator, 93 points: Aromas of blackberry forest fruits and licorice with just a hint of spice. Full-bodied with loads of ripe fruit and velvety tannins. Raisins toasted oak and just a hint of dark chocolate. Best after 2010. 1125 cases made...
Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 91 points: (ST89-91 points) Dark ruby-red. Very primary, ripe aromas of black raspberry, blueberry and chocolate show a touch of animal fur reduction. Sweet and chocolatey in the mouth but a bit chunky today. The wine's substantial...
jamessuckling.com, 96 points: (JS95-96 points) This is very concentrated yet soft and fresh in texture. Full-bodied and round and mouth-filling. So impressive how it fills your mouth yet remains fresh. It’s so framed.
jamessuckling.com, 97 points: This is a superb red with currant, white truffle, sandalwood and stone. Full body, chewy tannins and a powerful finish. Turns to iodine. Gravel and hints of licorice too. Very, very long. This IS the La Mission Haut Brion...
Neal Martin's Wine Journal, 94 points: Tasted at the Syndicat de Pomerol and twice at the UGC. There is good vigour on the La Pointe 2010 this being the first vintage vinified in their brand new cuverie. Very pure dark cherry fruit intermingling with blueberry...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 93 points: (WA91-93 points) The 2016 Fonreaud is certainly a Listrac that is worth checking out. The bouquet is very well defined with supremely well-integrated oak that allows the terroir to show through. There is a subtle...
Wine Spectator, 92 points: Lovely violet white pepper black cherry and roasted tobacco aromas and flavors are supported by a mouthwatering chalky edge that cuts through the perfumy finish. Very nicely done for the vintage. Drink now through 2015...
Stephen Tanzer's IWC, 93 points: (ST91-93 points) Bright dark red. Deep but reticent nose hints at licorice and underbrush. Then surprisingly layered and creamy in the mouth with cherry and redcurrant fruit complemented by dark Belgian chocolate and...
Jancis Robinson's Purple Pages, 93 points: Mid to dark crimson but no hint of blue. Firm and rich and dense. But actually a top layer of fragility that adds interest. Very rich and sweet. Tense and nervous. Lots of autumnal undergrowth. Reverberant. Slightly...
Antonio Galloni's Vinous, 96 points: (93-96 points) Bright, dark red. A sexy note of flinty reduction to the aromas of raspberry, mocha, brown spices, smoke and underbrush. Silky and fine-grained but with terrific energy and lift to its sappy flavors of...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Deep garnet with a touch of purple, the 2009 Cluster M45 Shiraz has notes of fragrant earth and forest floor over youthful black fruits and tar. Full-bodied and built like a brick house with firm chewy tannins and a nice...
Vinous, 93 points: (93+) Pale, bright yellow. Sexy, complex nose melds white peach, citrus peel, grilled nuts, noble herbs, brown spices and a whiff of white pepper. Broad, silky and dry, showing no edges to the flavors of stone fruits...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: The 600-case 2014 Châteauneuf du Pape Barbe Rac (100% Grenache) is one of the wines of the vintage and offers shocking levels of concentration and mid-palate depth to go with classic notes of black currants, dried earth...
