James Suckling

This is a new wine from here with a solid center palate of juicy fruit and firm and silky tannins that follow through to a fresh finish. Pretty. Shows excellent potential. Small production.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW - Wine Advocate

Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Magrez La Peyre has quite a spicy nose to begin, with notes of cinnamon stick, cloves and cumin seed over a core of baked black plums and blackcurrant pastilles plus a touch of garrigue. Medium-bodied, the palate is taut and mineral-laced with firm, grainy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing fragrant. Drinking Window : 2020 - 2032

Rounded, decadent (shockingly so for the vintage), and medium to full-bodied, the 2017 Château Magrez Lapeyre is a ripe, sweetly fruited beauty that has way more fruit and texture than most. This deep purple colored Saint-Estephe has plenty of chocolatey dark fruit, sweet tannin, and no hard edges, all making it one of the more upfront, pleasure-bent releases out there.

Antonio Galloni MW - Vinous

Magrez La Peyre is a new wine from Bernard Magrez. The 2017 is a very pretty, deep and unusually fleshy Saint-Estèphe for the year. Pliant and inviting the 2017 has a lot to offer. Bold, red stone fruit, scorched earth, smoke, licorice and tobacco undertones add nuance to this super-expressive, fruit-forward Saint-Estèphe. In a vintage in which so many Saint-Estèphes are lacking in depth, Magrez La Peyre is terrific. In addition to this wine, Magrez has plans for a luxury cuvée from the core two hectares of the property.

Jeff Leve - The Wine Cellar Insider

The debut vintage for this new wine from Bernard Magrez kicks off with oak, dark red fruits, smoke and spice. From a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, the wine is sweet, supple and forward presenting an easy to like, spicy, black cherry character.
