Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2009-2015, Jancis Robinson MW, Jun 2009
RS 1.7 g/l, TA 4.53 g/l, pH 3.15. Just beside Doisy-Daëne, with a name from his wife Florence. Similar limestone soil to Doisy-Daëne but a bit cooler because next to the forest. Sensitive to spring frost. 50% Sémillon. Everything else is the same as Doisy-Daëne Sec. 15% new oak (for Sémillon only) and 85% old oak. Barrel fermented. 80,000 bottles produced. Round and tangy. More richness on the mid palate. Much fatter and much sweeter than the all-Sauvignon wines. (JR)

Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2008-2010, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2008
Minerals and flinty but without quite the intensity of the Ch La Garde tasted just before it. Slightly loose. Acceptable but no real message. A bit short. (JR)
