91 POINTS

Peter Moser - Falstaff Magazine

Intense dark ruby garnet, opaque core, purple hue to narrow rim. Fine herbal savouriness, red cherries, tobacco nuances, floral touch. Juicy, discreet cherry fruit, fresh acidity, nicely structured, a touch of nougat on the mineral finish; open and approachable.

James Suckling

Ripe and compact with a medium body and a solid tannin structure. Dark-fruit and gravel character. Good depth and structure for the vintage. 80% merlot, 19% cabernet sauvignon and 1% cabernet franc.

Antonio Galloni MW - Vinous

The 2021 G d'Estournel is racy and expressive in the glass. Pretty floral and savory accents run through a core of dark Merlot fruit. This mid-weight, gracious Haut-Médoc is all charm. The 2021 is impeccably balanced from start to finish. Delicious.

Georgina Hindle - Decanter

Rose-touched sweet red berry fruit. Subtle and quite deep. This is more rich than overtly fresh and acidic. Unfussy, with concentrated blackcurrants and black cherries. Succulent, then crisp salinity coming through at the end, plus Cabernet markers of eucalyptus, mint and green peppercorns. Calm and gentle with rich, high-toned fruit. 25% new oak. Soft spicing from clove and cinnamon.
