Jane Anson: 90/100
Always an enjoyable and consistent estate, and again one of those benchmark properties to take the temperature of vintage quality. This has a pretty solid tannic frame, with juice running through it, soft black fruits, not the same depth in Listrac that you are going to find over on the St Julien side of the Médoc peninsula, but this is thoroughly charming.
