JAMES SUCKLING: "A young grand cru with blackberry, black-cherry, chalk and stone character. Medium to full body with firm tannins and a long, linear finish. Touch of class here."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "There have been many changes at this address in the last 18 months: Thomas Duclos has come on board as consulting enologist, and the estate has acquired the vineyards of Petite Faurie de Souchard (not to be confused with nearby Petite Faurie de Soutard), which complements their existing clay terroirs with some of Saint-Émilion's limestone slopes. The result is the 2023 Dassault, a lovely wine evocative of dark cherries, wild berries and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and supple, it's beautifully integrated and pure. Harvest lasted for over one month, block by block."

FALSTAFF: "Dunkles Rubingranat, tiefer Kern, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Reife Pflaumen und Brombeeren, dunkle Kirschen sind unterlegt, zart nach kandierten Orangenzesten. Saftig, elegant, feine Süße, ein Hauch von Feigen, integrierte Tannine, gute Frische, schokoladiger Nachhall, ein stoffiger Speisenwein mit Entwicklungspotenzial."
