Score 91/100 · James Suckling, Jan 2018

Some real depth here with dark fruit, shrouded in spicy, toasty oak aromas that lead to a palate with a sturdy, ripe core of blackberries and black cherries and supple, but muscular tannins. Try from 2020.

Score 83/100 · Drink 2018-2021, Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Mar 2017

The Lyonnat 2014 Emotion was laden with too much creamy oak on the nose that tends to occlude terroir expression. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, masculine in the mouth and furry in texture, although the finish lacks the requisite complexity and sophistication.
