  James Suckling
  "Concentrated and rather viscous with honeyed quince, smoked herbs, citrus, white mushrooms and beeswax. A touch of flint too. Quite intense and sweet but balanced with enough acidity and phenolic freshness. Complex, full and long in the finish. Drink or hold."

  Weinwisser
  "Verspieltes Bouquet, Sternanis, frisch gemahlener weißer Pfeffer, Zitrusfrucht, Lindenblütenhonig und Mandarine. Am sublimen Gaumen mit cremiger Textur, balancierter Rasse und vielschichtigem Körper. Im aromatischen langanhaltenden Finale getrocknete Marille, Mirabellentarte und edle Toffeenote."

  Falstaff
  "Mittleres Goldgelb, silberfarbene Reflexe. Feine Botrytiswürze, reife gelbe Fruchtanklänge, Nuancen von Stachelbeeren, Mango und Guaven, dezenter Blütenhonig, facettenreiches Bukett. Deutliche Süße, gelber Pfirsich, integrierte Säurestruktur, bleibt gut haften, durchaus in der opulenteren Stilvariante des Jahrgangs, braucht seine Zeit."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Honeysuckle, orange rind, pineapples, caramel, crème brûlée, and roasted nuts pop in the perfume. The palate is as sweet as it is vibrant, showcasing a rich display of pineapples, saffron, and roasted cashews that really stick with you. Drink from 2027-2045."

  Wine Enthusiast
  "Under new management, this estate has definitely improved. The wine's delicate balance, typical of Barsac, is finely judged, as the winemakers ensured there was a touch of acidity to balance the honey and sweetness."

  "Dried apricot and fig, with waves of white pear and tarte tartin. Luscious, depth through the mid palate. Owned by the Tari family but the vineyard is now looked after by Grands Chais de France, overseen by Vincent Cachau with Valérie Lavigne consultant. Unusually this is 100% Sémillon in the 2022 vintage, will be aged in 30% new oak barrels, 145g/l residual sugar."

  Decanter
  "Orange, peach, apricot and fleshy lemon notes on the palate, a richness and spice to this, edgy and straight, defined and precise with bite to the fruit. It's more focussed in terms of angles - this has bite and crunch which nicely offsets the sweet and unctuous fruit. Thick, filling, a bit compact and spiced still with some toastiness - liquorice, mint and minerality. An appealingly interesting style. 155g residual sugar. Harvest 11-18 October. Rolland & Associés consultants."

  Wine Spectator
  "Plump and slightly exotic in feel, with pineapple, lemon chutney, ginger and buttered brioche notes that roll through the orange blossom–tinged and corpulent finish. Drink now through 2038. 370 cases made."
