jamessuckling.com, 97 points: This is a laser-guided Champagne with fabulous energy and intensity with a tight palate, racy acidity and super fine phenolics. It goes on and on. Fine bubbles. Light pine and praline character. One for the cellar. 60%...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: (95+ points) Disgorged in October 2018 with seven grams per liter dosage, the 2007 Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Louis Salmon derives from the villages of Cramant, Chouilly and Mesnil-sur-Oger, and half of the vins clairs...
Decanter, 95 points: This wine shows what larger formats, in this case magnum, can bring, with complex fruit confit flavours of peche des vignes and dried apricot. A bonny baby, still very tight, showing huge potential. (Drink between 2020-2030)
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points: 98+ Pale to medium gold colored, the 2007 d'Yquem delivers powerful scents of tropical fruits—dried mangoes and pineapple paste—accented by acacia honey, toasted almonds and woodsmoke with hints of chalk dust, kettle...

View From The Cellar, 90 points: 90+ In 2007, Jacques Lardière and his team were very strict with their sorting of the grapes prior to fermentation, and thus the production of the les Baudes was quite small and the percentage of new wood was a bit higher...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 94 points: Very little wine is produced (about 400 cases) from this tiny 5-acre vineyard but it is always among the most concentrated and richest of Bordeaux. The inky/purple-colored 2007 offers sweet cassis fruit notes interwoven...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 91 points: Tiny yields of 15 hectoliters per hectare and a typical blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc (14.5% natural alcohol) have resulted in a soft, plump, 1997-ish (which is drinking brilliantly) wine. It offers an...
Decanter, 95 points: All of the Left Bank firsts are tasting excellent, but Margaux stands out for the tightness and clarity of its sweet cherry and cassis fruit expression, the menthol grip on the finish, and the perfume that runs through...
jamessuckling.com, 97 points: Four blocks here, the same since 1974 – two in Aÿ, one in Mesnil and one in Avize – all selected for their ripeness and ability to push this further. There's a spicy and exotic nose that has quite expressive redder fruit...
jamessuckling.com, 94 points: This Petrus is solid for the vintage with bright and pretty fruit. It’s full-bodied, with chewy tannins and a berry, Indian spice, and cinnamon character. Long and intense. Better than most may believe. Still needs some...
Wine Enthusiast, 97 points: Powered by dry botrytis, this is a wine with immense potential. It has weight, complexity and richness, all under the cloak of botrytis. To leaven the power, there is acidity, but this is certainly for aging. ROGER VOSS
