Wine Advocate (93-95+)The 2020 Lynsolence is 100% Merlot, aging for 18 months in French oak barriques, 100% new. Deep purple-black in color, it charges out of the glass with energetic scents of fresh blackberries, crushed black cherries and ripe, juicy black plums, plus nuances of cedar chest, lilacs and licorice with a touch of dusty soil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is jam-packed with taut black fruits, framed by firm, finely grained tannins and fantastic tension, finishing long and layered. The alcohol is 14.5% this year. |

The Magdelaine 1969 is a sublime representation of Bordeaux’s fine viniculture. Hailing from Château Magdelaine, an esteemed vineyard in the revered Saint-Émilion region in France, this Merlot-dominant wine is truly spectacular. With a reputation for producing highly concentrated, compelling wines, Château Magdelaine's vineyards are uniquely known for their clay-rich soil atop limestone subsoil, offering distinctive minerality to the wine. This particular vintage, Magdelaine 1969, is a testament to the vineyard’s illustrious heritage. It exhibits a remarkable structure and depth, complemented by an enticing bouquet of mature dark fruits and nuanced undertones of truffle and tobacco. On the palate, its complex flavour profile is enriched by poised tannins and an elegant, lasting finish. As a standout example of Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, and an encapsulation of Bordeaux winemaking finesse, the Magdelaine 1969 is a stellar addition to any discerning wine connoisseur’s collection. |

Wine Advocate (92)A sleeper of the vintage, this well-executed 2008 St.-Emilion exhibits a dark plum/ruby/purple-tinged color as well as a glorious bouquet of sweet black cherries, licorice and powdered limestone, a good texture, medium to full body and a pure style. Combining substance with finesse, it should age effortlessly for 15+ years. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (92)The 2009 Magrez-Fombrauge has a deep garnet core with little ageing on the rim. The bouquet is attractive with melted red berry fruit, black olive compote and light desiccated orange peel aromas, nicely defined and elegant in style. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannin, gentle grip, quite savory with Chinese 5-spice and white pepper sprinkled over the finish. It feels like some ripe Cabernet Franc here (even though it is 100% Merlot) and the aftertaste is commendably long. Very fine. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners’ 2009 Bordeaux tasting. |

Wine Advocate (96)A flowery nose of ripe plums, blueberries, truffles and roasted meats jumps from the glass of this inky/purple-colored 2011. Made from a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc, it reveals super-richness, velvety tannin, a skyscraper-like mid-palate, and not a hard edge to be found. It is another remarkable effort in this challenging vintage. Its 14.5% natural alcohol is incredible given the growing conditions. This gorgeous boutique St.-Emilion, one of the stars of the vintage, will evolve effortlessly for 15-20 years. By the way, I recently had the 2000 Magrez-Fombrauge (which I believe is the first vintage), and at age 14 it was outstanding. |

Jeb Dunnuck (93-96)One of the original garage wines, the 2017 Magrez Fombrauge is a blockbuster made from 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc that will see 18 months in new barrels. It offers a huge nose of chocolaty dark fruits, crushed rocks, and sweet oak as well as full-bodied richness, impressive mid-palate depth, and sweet tannin. Deep, rich, gorgeously textured, and lengthy, it could be a true superstar and up with the crème de la crème in the vintage. |

Jeb Dunnuck (96-99)I continue to love this wine, and the 2019 Château Magrez Fombrauge is one seriously good, opulent, super rich 2019 that does everything right. Loads of crème de cassis, blueberries, tobacco leaf, candied violets, and chocolate all soar from the glass. Deep, full-bodied, and just beautifully balanced on the palate, it's another stunner in the making. |

Jeb Dunnuck (91-93)There are two cuvées from Château Mangot, which is located in the eastern region of Saint-Emilion. Starting with the 2019 Château Magot, this ruby/purple-colored 2019 offers a juicy bouquet of black raspberries, mulberries, spring flowers, unsmoked tobacco, and a hint of chocolaty oak. Medium-bodied, elegant, and with an incredible floral, spicy character, it has ripe yet present tannins, terrific balance, and a great finish. It should certainly be an outstanding wine, if not a true hidden gem. |

Medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless, it's pure and vibrant, with a layered core of fruit, velvety tannins and a long, mouthwateringly chalky finish. This is a brilliant wine that sells for a song and which surpasses many of its more well-known neighbors. |
