Wine Advocate (85)
Tasted blind at the Southwold 2012 tasting, the 2012 Monbrison had a light and slightly steely bouquet that nevertheless had satisfactory definition and freshness. Hopefully it will develop more fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannin, easy-drinking in style with a carefree, brambly finish that you could argue ought to show more ambition. Drink over the next 4-6 years. Tasted January 2016.Inc. VAT£553.27 -

The 2015 Monbrison has a fragrant floral bouquet with scents of wild red roses infusing the mélange of red and blue fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, and a little stringy at the moment. There is admirable purity toward the finish with blackberry and blueberry lingering on the aftertaste. This is a very fine Monbrison. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.Inc. VAT£554.47 -

The 2019 Monbrison is classy, polished and elegant, just as it was in barrel. Crushed flowers, sweet berries, spice, mint and sweet pipe tobacco give this understated, expressive Margaux an air of finesse that is unmistakable.Inc. VAT£548.98
