. Bettane & Desseauve tested for the magazine "Terre de Vins" the best Saint Emilion Grand Cru who are knocking on the door of the Grand Cru Classé, amongst which was our 09 vintage: "This outsider made it, full on the palate, fine notes of wood, still powerful tannins but already well-integrated. Fullbodied, in perfect accordance with the appellation but in its upper echelons"
. Selection of 08 vintage in the Special Wine Dossier of "Nouvel Observateur" and "Challenge" Magazine: "Treat of red fruit, fresh and crunchy fruit on the palate, mastered extraction, soft tannins: a delicious merlot (90%) you can enjoy right now or leave in the cellar a couple of years"
