Lovely nose that is already showing signs of maturity – with the black fruit comes cedar, beef stock and iron. Chewy tannin, fine balance and good concentration. Loads to enjoy here, but this lady's not for keeping. (RH)

Score 16/20 · Drink 2015-2019, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Apr 2014

Lovely black fruitcake character and a lick of sweet vanillin. Rounded, smooth and easy drinking, but pretty slim on the palate, and short to finish. (RH)

Situated at the highest point in the Médoc (at a huge 43 metres above sea-level), this estate is thought to be named after a spring on the site, from which Henry II supposedly drank (a “royal fountain”).
