  "Zuverlässig zählt der La Serre trotz ausgezeichnetem Terroir zu den unterschätztesten Weinen aus Saint-Émilion. Superfein und saftig lebendig, erscheint er in der Nase sehr ansprechend und tiefgründig. Weit gefasste, feine Gerbstoffe zeugen von großartigem Terroir und sind durchtränkt von extraktreicher Cremigkeit. Dicht, lang und rassig, verfügt der La Serre über eine große Struktur und ausgezeichnete Frische. Im sehr salzigen Nachhall präsentiert er einige gereifte Aromen und schmelzige Süße, 13.5 Vol.-%."

  "Redcurrants and raspberry leaf on the nose, slightly herbal and fragrant. Smooth and supple, a nice gentle chew to the texture with a juicy core of freshly-picked strawberries and red cherries underpinned by bright but not seeing acidity. Tannins are just a touch dry towards the finish, hints of menthol and eucalyptus give some freshness and sense of leanness, but also just giving some constriction to the fun fruitiness but this is nicely structured - not too light - with a long finish."

  "The 2021 Château La Serre comes from 7 hectare of vines on the upper plateau and is 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc that was harvested from October 4-10. This medium-bodied, elegant, charming 2021 has pretty red (and some black) fruits as well as classic dusty limestone, flowers, and spicy nuances. It's balanced and has soft, supple tannins and outstanding length."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Silky, soft and fresh, with a gorgeous polish to the dark red fruits which are made even more interesting by all of its floral accents. There is sweetness to the fruit, soft, silky tannins and freshness in the finish. I like the spicy, cocoa note that comes through on the backend. Drink from 2023-2038."

  The Wine Advocate
  "The 2021 La Serre confirms its strong showing en primeur, bursting with aromas of plums, berries, rose petals and spices, followed by a medium-bodied, pure and fleshy palate that's ample and charming, with an enveloping core of fruit and melting tannins. As readers may remember, this seven-hectare property, beautifully situated on the shallow soils of the limestone plateau next to La Clotte and Villemaurine on the one side and Trotte Vieille and Troplong Mondot on the other, is planted at 7,200 vines per hectare, with some 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. The 2021 confirms that this is an estate on the rise."

  "This shows aromas of black olives, dark plums, iodine and paprika. It’s medium-bodied, juicy and dark-fruited, with fine and creamy tannins. Fresh and delicious. Drink or hold."

  "Kräftiges Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, breitere Randaufhellung. Kräuterwürze, feine Nuancen von Brombeerkonfitüre und Orangenzesten, tabakig unterlegt. Saftig, schokoladig, finessenreich strukturiert, etwas Gewürznelken, feine Tannine, reife Herzkirschen, bleibt haften, gut entwickelt, verfügt über Potenzial."

  "Lush black-fruit aromas are followed by ripe berry flavors and generous tannins. The wine has weight showing through the structure. It is rich, but open and fresh at the end. Drink from 2027."
