Critics Ratings

'De Luze, who is the president of the Alliance des Cru Bourgeois, has produced a dense, ruby/purple-colored wine exhibiting notes of forest floor, spring flowers, blueberry, black raspberry and cassis. This wine looks even more impressive than the 2009, which was another terrific sleeper of the vintage. A superb cru bourgeois that behaves like a classified growth, this brilliant wine can be drunk early on because of its sweet tannin and low acidity, or cellared for 15 or more years. Bravo!' - Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 92/100 (Feb 2013)

'30% Merlot, 70% Cabernet Sauvignon. Dark crimson. Rather reticent dark fruit on the nose. Gently leafy. Fine, upright refined tannins.' - Julia Harding MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Sept 2012)
