93 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Lots of chocolate, mocha, darker fruits, and dried herb-like notes emerge from the 2012 Château Barde-Haut, a medium to full-bodied, concentrated 2012. It's showing a touch of maturity yet still has plenty of tannins and structure, good mid-palate depth, and outstanding length. I continue to think 2012 was a great vintage for the Right Bank, and this certainly doesn't change my mind." (03/2020) 92 points Wine Spectator: "Offers lovely purity and mouthfeel, with notes of velvety plum, boysenberry and cherry preserves gliding easi...
92 points James Suckling: "The quality of the fruit and tannins are very pretty here. It’s full-bodied, with round velvety texture and a delicious finish. Very impressive." (07/2014) 90-92 points Wine Enthusiast: "Firm tannins, but also ripe, sweet fruits, with a fine balance. While the wine is on the light, fresh side, it does have a good, final structure. (RV)" (04/2010) Wine Advocate: "This Merlot-dominated wine displays a dense ruby/purple color, soft berry fruit intermixed with mocha, and hints of white chocolate, herbs, and spice. It should dri...

91 points Wine Enthusiast: "Part of the state system for helping people with disabilities return to work, this estate has made a richly fruity wine that is full of firm tannins and generous black fruits. With everything coming into balance, the wine will be ready from 2023. (RV)" (09/2021)
100 points James Suckling: "Seductive. The nose draws you in deep: It’s like staring into a well of pristine dark cherries, dark plums, blackberries and mulberries. All the oak is perfectly subsumed. The palate’s flawless with immense depth and power and it’s so balanced as to appear to float. Immaculate fresh dark-berry and plum flavors. Silky and deep, ribbon-like finish. Perfect. *2018 Wine of the Year*" (02/2018) 100 points Wine Advocate: "The 2015 Canon was a benchmark wine that seemed to revitalize this historic estate. I was crossing my fingers ...

95 points Decanter: "More Bordeaux should taste like this; utterly approachable with a strawberry jam sweetness of fruit and a rounded lick of vanilla. Dive a little deeper and there’s some complexity here; notes of liquorice, dust and cedar wood. (CW) " (11/2022) K&L Notes: Gold medal from Decanter and 95 points--delicous, easy drinking, fruit forward winner.. Stock up on it for parties.
93 points Wine Enthusiast: "A powerful blueberry scent blazes a path for aromas of loamy soil and rose petals dried between the pages of an old book. The wine's flavor combination of black tea, marionberry muffins and oatcakes is like breakfast breaking out—only this meal includes tannins so muscular, they grab you by the lapels and steal your milk money. Drink now–2032. *Cellar Selection* (MA)" (04/2024) 92 points Vinous: "The 2021 Merlot, from the Wahluke Slope, is a total pleasure to take in, wafting up with masses of ripe blueberry complicated by r...
93 points James Suckling: "Blackberry, bark, mushroom and orange-peel aromas follow through to a medium body with firm, tight tannins that run the length of the wine, coupled with citrusy acidity and a vivid finish. Very well done. Drink after 2024. " (02/2022) 90 points Vinous: "The 2019 Bel-Air Jean & Gabriel is impeccable. Soft, creamy and beautifully layered in the glass, the 2019 is especially fine for Lussac, where the wines are rarely this polished. Black cherry, chocolate, licorice and dark spice build over time. There is a bit of grip on the f...

94 points James Suckling: "Dark plums, gently toast spices and dark, stony, graphite-like aromas here. The palate has an extremely fluid, charming feel with dark plums and chocolate in terms of flavors. Really supple and effortlessly long. Try from 2022." (02/2018) Wine Advocate: "Blended of 90% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc, the medium garnet-purple colored 2015 de Bel-Air has something of a dark-fruited, animal, broody nose, showing notes of stewed plums, baked blackberries and beef drippings with a waft of bay leaves.

96-98 points Vinous: "The 2021 Vieux Château Certan is a spectacular tour de force from Alexander and Guillaume Thienpont. What a wine. Vibrant and magnificent in its precision, the 2021 races across the palate, revealing seemingly endless layers of nuance over time. Dark blue/purplish fruit, cinnamon, new leather, graphite, lavender and crushed rocks all build effortlessly. The Cabernets are dialed up in 2021 and that comes through in the wine's flavor profile and overall feel. The purity of the flavors is just mind-bending. Harvest took place between S...

94 points James Suckling: "Very aromatic and chalky on the nose with blackberries and blackcurrants. Licorice, too. Full to medium body, savory and chewy tannins, yet this always remains polished with a long and pretty finish. " (02/2017) 94 points Vinous: "The 2014 Barde-Haut has turned out beautifully. Dark cherry, mocha, spice, leather and tobacco flesh out in the glass. Effortless, supple and nicely layered, the 2014 hits all the right notes. The midweight style of the year comes through very nicely in this classy, polished Saint-Émilion. Proprieto...

94-96 points Jeb Dunnuck: "Coming from a gorgeous vineyard on the eastern, cooler side of Saint-Emilion, and 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, the 2020 Château Barde-Haut has a bright, juicy, yet powerful bouquet of ripe blue fruits, scorched earth, tobacco, and cedary herbs. It has a kiss of background oak (it’s aging in 60% new barrels), medium to full-bodied richness, a ripe, textured mouthfeel, and serious underlying structure that comes out with time in the glass. It should have some upfront appeal, yet smart money is on giving bottles at least 4-5...

Sourced from 10 hectares of hillside vineyards (80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc) planted in the 1960s on clay-limestone soils. The chateau is currently run by the fifth generation. With Château Valandraud as a neighbor, this is an interesting under-the-radar find.

100 points Jane Anson: "Stunning, grab-a-friend, insanely good wine. The structure and tannic grip manage to be both barely there and tightly controlling, giving form and space for the raspberry, blueberry and pomegrante fruits to crowd in the palate, followed by oyster shell salinity, pummice stone scrape and electic points of mandarin peel and lemon grass. Finished with pure no messing about juiciness."

It’s medium- to full-bodied with crunchy and open-grain tannins that are creamy and caressing. It’s endless in the finish. Crunchy and energetic. A wine that is thoughtful and gives you such great pleasure. Such purity. It’s like eating perfectly ripened grape must. Pure merlot. Drinkable in many ways, but will come together beautifully. A new reference point for merlot in Italy." (07/2024) K&L Notes: ...

96 points Jeb Dunnuck: "An awesome Saint Emilion, the 2015 Château Barde-Haut showed even better on this occasion than on release. A huge nose of sweet crème de cassis, jammy blackberries, violets, leather, and dried herbs gives way to a full-bodied wine that has a great mid-palate, ripe, silky tannins, not a hard edge to be found, and a great, great finish."

95 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2019 Merlot is a small step down from the 2018, but it's another remarkable wine. Black cherries, chocolate, roasted herbs, tobacco, and lead pencil notes all define the aromatics, and it's full-bodied, broad, and expansive, with velvety tannins. This layered, sexy Merlot will evolve for 10-15 years or more. " (12/2023) 94 points Wine Advocate: "The 2019 Merlot is composed of 93% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon.

96 points Vinous: "The 2021 La Ricolma is a wine of sublime elegance more than anything else. Readers will find a mid-weight, juicy Ricolma that impresses with its suave finesse more than the overt power of some years. Ripe dark plum, mocha, espresso, licorice and spice all meld together in a seamless, layered Ricolma that is all class. Soft, racy tannins wrap it all together in style. I can't wait to see how this ages. (AG) " (06/2024) K&L Notes: From the iconic San Giusto a Rentennano estate comes "Ricolma", a 100% Merlot crafted from the rolling h...

92 points Decanter: "The 2016 is naturally a little more subdued but there's an aromatic complexity with earthy, dark fruit notes. The palate is juicy and fresh with good persistence, the tannic frame powerful but the tannins finely honed. This is clearly a wine for ageing and will reward a little patience. The 'best value' pick. (JL)" (07/2021) 92 points Jane Anson: "This is the second vintage produced as entirely biodynamic under Latour tutelage.

As with the white, it has brilliant limestone character as well as vibrant strawberry and black raspberry fruits, hints of violets and flowers, background oak, and medium to full-bodied richness.
