  Weinwisser
  Dichtes Purpur mit lila Rand. Kompaktes, blaubeeriges Bouquet mit pfeffriger Würze unterlegt. Am kräftigen Gaumen mit tintigem Extrakt, viel Fülle zeigend, im Finale ein Korb voll blauer Beeren - gehört neben Branas GP zur Spitze in Moulis. Bravo! 17.5/20"

  Wine Enthusiast
  The sector of Poujeaux is one of the most prestigious in Moulis. This wine, from a 29-acre estate, is rich in tannins and dense in opulent black fruit. It is a powerful statement, tempered by acidity that gives a final lift."

  The Wine Cellar Insider
  Kicking off with a touch of oak, the deeply colored wine offers black raspberries, licorice, smoke and tobacco on the nose. Full-bodied with ripe, soft tannins and plenty of juicy fruit in the finish."

  Falstaff
  Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, dezente Randaufhellung, frisches Brombeerkonfit, angenehmer Cassisanklang, zart nach Orangenzesten. Komplex, stoffig, feines dunkles Beerenkonfit, feine Tannine, frisch strukturiert, mineralisch-zitroniger Nachhall, zarter Mokkanachhall, saftige Kirschen im Rückgeschmack, hat Reifepotenzial."

  Decanter
  Ripe, full and explosive with a big tannic frame. Expressive dark fruit aromas and flavour. Broad palate, tannins present but finely etched. Persistent."

  James Suckling
  Blackberry, blueberry and orange-peel aromas follow through to a full body with a solid core of fruit and a fresh, tangy finish. The hazelnut and walnut undertones add to the complexity."

  Wine Spectator
  A restrained style, but with a tasty core of juicy plum and red currant fruit that melds with light mulling spice, black tea and sanguine notes. There's a dusting of cedar on the finish. Drink now through 2028. 12,500 cases made."

  Jeb Dunnuck
  An outstanding Moulis made with consulting help from Stéphane Derenoncourt, the 2016 Château Poujeaux offers up a rock star, medium to full-bodied, layered profile as well as pretty notes of ripe black fruits, graphite, violets, and background oak. Give this sleeper 2-3 years of bottle age and it will impress for a decade or more."
