Wine Advocate (93)An absolutely stunning wine from the Janoueix family, this dense, full-bodied, wonderfully floral and blueberry/blackberry-scented wine shows some toasty vanillin, but then hits the palate with a full-bodied thunder and cascade of glycerin and fruit in its luscious personality. Captivating and seductive, thick, juicy, full-bodied and pure, this is a beautiful St.-Emilion fruit bomb to drink over the next 10-15 years. |

Wine Advocate (88-90)The 2016 La Confession has a tightly wound bouquet with red and black fruit, a touch of pencil box emanating from the Cabernet Franc. It needed a little encouragement from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannin, quite spicy in the mouth but missing just a little persistence on the finish. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (88-91)The 2017 La Confession is endowed with serious depth and unctuousness. Blueberry jam, menthol, licorice, sweet French oak, crème de cassis, spice and new leather are all amped up in this decidedly flamboyant Saint-Émilion. Although not exactly subtle, the 2017 is quite delicious. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (89)The 2018 La Confession has an intense nose of black cherry, raspberry coulis and a very slight Wellington boot scent, possibly from a bit of reduction. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy, dry tannins. Quite bold and forthright, it has a voluminous finish but comes across just a little raw at the end. A couple of years in bottle will do this no harm, but it takes itself a bit too seriously. |
