Score 92-93/100 · James Suckling

A vivid and bright wine with lots of fruit and intensity. Medium to full body and blackberries and stones. A tiny-production wine. Pretty. Mar 2017, www.jamessuckling.com

Blackish purple. Again, some volatility on the nose. Fairly light charge of fruit and very polished tannins. Rather leathery. Apr 2017, www.jancisrobinson.com, Drink: 2024-2035

The 2016 Soutard-Cadet is deep and voluptuous in feel. Super-ripe dark fruit, chocolate, spice and leather are all pushed forward. This is an especially ripe, inky Saint-Émilion, but all the elements are nicely balanced. Readers should expect an unapologetically concentrated, flamboyant Saint-Émilion. The 2016 saw 28 days on the skins, with some lots fermented in 500-liter barrels. New oak is 100 percent. Jean-Philippe Fort is the consultant. Tasted two times. Apr 2017, www.vinous.com

The 2016 Château Soutard-Cadet is a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc aged entirely in new oak. It has a very intense kirsch and black cherry bouquet, the oak dominating the fruit a little at the moment although it should be absorbed with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe tannin, touches of blood orange filtering through the red berry fruit with a healthy dash of spice on the persistent finish. This is a strong follow-up to the excellent 2015. Apr 2017, www.robertparker.com, Drink: 2022-2040
