Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92)The 2014 La Gurgue is bold, powerful and delicious. Succulent red cherry, plum, tobacco, smoke, dried flowers and licorice add character. Plush and inviting, but with a good backbone of tannin and acidity, the 2014 will drink well for a number of years. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (90-92)The 2020 La Gurgue is a rich, luscious wine deeply informed by tiny yields of 16 hectoliters per hectare as opposed to 35-40 or so. Plush, silky and voluptuous, the 2020 impresses right out of the gate. Rich red berry fruit, blood orange, pomegranate and spice build effortlessly in the glass. The 2020 has more Petit Verdot in the blend because of shatter in the Cabernet and Merlot. Aging is in 40% new oak, 40% concrete eggs and 20% new oak. It's a sleeper in this vintage. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (90-92)The 2021 La Gurgue is a deep, almost shockingly potent, wine. A blast of dark cherry, plum, mocha, spice and licorice hits the palate. This flamboyant, generous Margaux is sure to find many admirers. The 2021 is naturally still coming together, but it is hugely promising. The tannins just need a bit of polish here. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (89)The 2016 Le Haye has a playful bouquet with orange sorbet laced red berry fruit, more open and generous than its appellation peers. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, supple tannin. This is quite saturated in style, with candied orange peel lacing the pretty, almost Margaux-like finish. This is a delight. Tasted at the Cru Bourgeois tasting in London. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (89)The 2017 La Haye is gorgeous. Soft, floral and refined, La Haye shows the more restrained side of Saint-Estèphe. Crushed red berry, spice and floral notes are all beautifully lifted throughout. The 2017 is classy and polished to the core, which makes it a total sleeper in this vintage. The blend is Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and, unusually, Malbec. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (86-88)The 2019 La Haye is a plump, juicy Saint-Estèphe that will drink well right out of the gate. Cedar, tobacco and earthy accents add lovely aromatic complexity. The 2019 is not terribly complex, and some angular contours remain, but it is quite good for what it is - a tasty Cru Bourgeois to enjoy in its youth. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (90-92)The 2020 La Haye has a slightly herbaceous nose, although there is decent black fruit mixed with mulch/earthy aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit and fine acidity. Quite mineral-driven, culminating in a fresh, tensile finish. One of the appellation’s hidden gems. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (87-89)The 2021 La Haye has a perfumed, graphite-tinged bouquet, quite Pauillac in style and nicely proportioned. The palate is medium-bodied with firm grippy tannins and a little chewy, leading to a muscular finish. This will need to muster more finesse by bottling time, but there is some potential here. |

James Suckling (96)This shows an enchanting nose of roses, violets and other flowers. It's also fruity but very subtle. A full-body, super-structured red with an excellent backbone of ripe yet firm tannins. Goes on for minutes. Don’t touch for five or six years. Try in 2019. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (92)The 2014 La Lagune has a tightly wound bouquet that may have closed down since I last tasted it. It begins to open with blackberry, graphite and wet limestone scents, quite strict and focused, but very well defined and showing great clarity. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, and density with a little chalkiness showing towards the second half. I like the tension and energy, lingering long in the mouth. It will need several years in bottle but it will be worth the wait. Tasted at the La Lagune vertical at the château. |

Decanter (93)Now certified organic, and converting to biodynamics from this year. It displays a confident weight to the damson fruits that are hugely elegant and well placed. A little closed when tasted on two occasions, and the high Petit Verdot content of this wine is no doubt contributing to its slight austerity at this stage, but it also brings that beautifully welcome whoosh of black fruit spicing. Very good quality, elegant and long-ageing, just a dash below the exceptional 2015. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92)The 2017 La Lagune is powerful and dense, but also a bit rough around the edges. Tobacco, game, licorice, smoke and dried flowers along with big, coarse tannins give the 2017 its decidedly hearty feel. Even so, there is quite a bit of complexity and plenty of personality. The 2017 is not exactly finessed, but it has a lot going on. The 2017 needs time to come together, but it is promising, that is for sure. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (95)The 2019 La Lagune offers exquisite transparency on the nose - one of the most terroir-expressive Pessac-Léognan wines this vintage. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, taut and fresh, quite saline with a very integrated and poised finish that lingers in the mouth. Wonderful - could this be the best La Lagune in years? Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting. |

Bordeaux has some of the most premium wines in the world with its famous First Growths heralded as far back as Jefferson. However it must be noted that Bordeaux also offers an excellent range, with plenty of great value wines available. Bordeaux has 54 different appellations with varying soil types that give different styles. It has thousands of chateaux, from the small and humble to the overwhelmingly magnificent.
