Great Wines of Bordeaux (96 points):
"I tasted his luxury cuvees, Javernieres and James, in vintage 2019, which are an incredible value for money. Powerful with dense dark fruit, concentrated, vibrant, and sophisticated with perfect acidity and complexity. 96p rating for both."
Robert Parkers Wine Advocate (93+ points):
"Exhibiting aromas of ripe berry fruit, warm spices and vanilla pod, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and tightly wound, with lively acids and powdery tannins, and it will require a couple of years' patience to show all its potential."
La Revue du Vin de France (93 points):
"L'impact minéral du lieu se ressent, avec une intensité portée sur la mine de crayon, la pierre chaude et le graphite. La bouche est élancée, pure, et puissante. Grande garde. "
