Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92)The 2017 Taillefer offers lovely density in a mid-weight style that holds considerable near- and medium-term appeal. Succulent dark cherry, blood orange, chocolate, spice, new leather and mocha all flesh out in this appealing, unctuous Pomerol from Bernard Moueix. Best of all, the 2017 should be a terrific value. Tasted two times. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (92)The 2019 Taillefer has evolved nicely since I tasted it from barrel. On the nose, vivacious brambly red fruit, Earl Grey, allspice and cedar aromas vie for attention. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, a liberal sprinkling of white pepper and a cohesive finish. This should age well in bottle. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (91)The 2020 Taillefer was tasted from two bottles. I must confess that the first left me scratching my head and did not rate it. The second is cleaner and more focused on the nose with blackberry, briary and light tertiary scents. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, fine tannins and well-judged acidity. Ah…this is much more like it. Not long, but its precision really develops nicely in the glass. My score is based on the second bottle. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (87-89)The 2021 Taillefer has a fragrant, floral bouquet of brambly red fruit infused with iris petal; touches of tobacco emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit and fine acidity, though the finish is just a bit hard at the moment. Give it 3–4 years in bottle. |
