  "Cedary oak adds spices to pristine plums and dark berries. Terrific clarity and allure. The palate delivers a seamless and fluid build of smooth tannins, carrying bright cherries, plums and dark chocolate through to a deeply classy finish. Superb. Best from 2020."

  Falstaff
  "Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung, reife, verführerische Kirschenfrucht, angenehme Gewürznoten, dunkle Beerenfrucht unterlegt. Saftig, elegante Textur, extraktsüßer Körper, finessenreich strukturiert, samtig und lange anhaltend, frisch, verfügt über sicheres Reifepotenzial, mineralischer Nachhall."

  "Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte. Grosse Pomerolklasse bereits in der Nase zeigend, nicht nur einfach fruchtig, sondern auch mit floralen Würznoten (Cabernet Franc!) aufwartend, wirkt sehr homogen im Ansatz. Im Gaumen Charme und Finesse, aber auch Power. Gehört zu den besten auf dem Plateau, mit entsprechender Konkurrenz."

  "Notes of cassis, crushed violets, spice, and distinct minerality emerge from the 2015 Château Petit-Village, and this Merlot dominated blend (there’s 10% Cabernet Franc) is medium to full-bodied, elegant, and seamless on the palate. With fine, polished tannin, the freshness and purity that’s the hallmark of the vintage, and integrated tannin, it’s a rock-star of a Pomerol to drink anytime over the coming 20+ years."

  Wine Enthusiast
  "There is a fine touch of perfume here along with the generous flavors. Spice, smoky aromas and blackberry fruits are forward in this rounded, opulent wine that shows an extra push in quality from this estate. "

  Decanter
  "Finesse on both the nose and the palate, which exudes subtle charm and wet stone aspects. It needs a bit of time to open up, but has refinement. A blend of 75% Merlot, with 18% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  "Black truffle aromas are starting to come out, along with bitter chocolate and black cherries. Medium bodied, soft and polished, the wine is almost ready to drink, perhaps just a few years in the cellar is all you need to add even more softness to the texture."

  Wine Spectator
  "A gutsy style, with lightly roasted fig, plum and blackberry fruit flavors matched to brambly, slightly chewy grip. An ample dose of ganache and roasted alder drives the finish. The pieces are there, but this needs time in the cellar. Best from 2023 through 2033. 2,583 cases made."

  The Wine Advocate
  "Composed of 71% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 9% Cabernet Sauvignon aged for 15 months in barrels, 60% new, the 2015 Petit Village reveals a deep garnet-purple color and gregarious notes of crushed blackberries, crème de cassis and preserved plums with touches of cedar chest, black olives, bay leaves and Marmite toast. The decadently rich, medium to full-bodied palate is superbly supported by a firm frame of grainy tannins and a lively backbone, finishing long and savory."
