Score 16/20 · Drink 2010-2020, Julia Harding MW, jancisrobinson.com, Dec 2007

Sweet red and black fruit on the nose, cedary oak, but more complex than that with a pencil lead leafiness and a meaty edge. Tannins are still firm and dry but helped by the well-managed fruit. (JH)

Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2016-2028, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2006

Rich, sweet and plummy. Lots of very dry tannins on the finish. Could do with very slightly more acidity perhaps. Very creditable though. (JR)

About the producer

Picque Caillou

Neighbouring Haut-Brion and Pape Clément, this estate has been turned around since Paulin Calvet took over in 2007. Working with the legendary late Denis Dubourdieu and Valérie Lavigne, results have been impressive.
