Canon 18.5
Brilliant this year - so satisfying and refined. Has to be the best Canon for a number of years. Certainly no block-buster but pure and silky with length and line. Exquisite. Drink 2016-2040.
Gazin 17.5
Ripe but poised. Aromatic red fruit (crushed raspberry) aromas, smooth tannic frame, attractive mid-palate fruit and a balancing freshness that is marked. Assured value. Drink 2018-2035.
l’Arrosée 17
Clearly a distinguished wine. Long, linear, fresh. Elegant bouquet. Finely worked tannins. Drink 2015-2028.
Clos Puy Arnaud 16.5
Beautifully poised and elegant wine. Long and linear in style. Pure, expressive fruit. Fine tannins. Minerally freshness on the finish. Drink 2013-2020.
Moulin Haut-Laroque 16.5
Spicy, lifted red fruit aromas. Palate rich and dense. Firm, ripe tannins. Long fresh finish. Definite ageing potential. Drink 2015-2025.
