Wine Doctor 92-94/100:
"It impressed with a perfumed style displayed on the nose, a dusty limestone character, with pretty floral notes. There follows a supple presence on the palate, with blackberry, spiced plum, black olive and grilled pip, underpinned by a ripe tannic structure, and some fresh acidity. A good bite to it in the finish, nicely grained tannins, with a little flourish of coffee bean and toasty oak here. A very elegant and composed style, with attractive potential. Many of the Fayat vines are low down, near Mazeyres, so this is a very good result".

VertdeVin 92/100:
"The nose is fruity, fresh, structured and offers concentration. It reveals notes of fresh raspberry, fleshy blackberry and more slightly cassis associated with fine touches of spices, tea, graphite as well as a discreet hint of toasted ans sweet spices/vanilla. The palate is fruity, juicy, well-balanced and offers suavity, gourmandize, a fine unctuosity, tension as well as an mineral frame. On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy blackberry, fleshy cassis and more slightly fresh raspberry associated with fine touches of small red berries/fresh cherry, tonka bean, a hint of crushed nut (in the background) as well as a subtle hint of zan, spices and tobacco. Tannins are fine and well-built. Good length".
