    1. WS 92

      "Bright and pure, with white peach, Key lime, verbena and tarragon accents that marry well, finishing with a suave and lingering feel. Distinctive and alluring in the end. Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon." www.winespectator.com
    2. WA 90-92, V 94, JS 94

      "The 2019 Le Marquis de Calon, matured in 25 % new oak, sports an almost identical bouquet to the one I found out of barrel, featuring intense blackberry, iodine and pressed iris petals, albeit with more composure. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth, slighly lactic entry and fine acidity, maybe not quite as "crunchy" as I recall, yet still satisfying and persistent." www.vinous.com
    3. WS 92, V 91, JS 93

      "Very solid, with a core of lightly steeped plum and blackberry fruit, supported by a streak of iron and framed by smoldering tobacco and dark earth notes. Good energy throughout as well, with a mouthwatering echo at the end." www.winespectator.com
    4. WA 92-94, WS 91, V 93, JS 94

      "Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, notions of wild blueberries, boysenberries and redcurrant jelly come bounding out of the glass, followed by a profound core of warm cassis, licorice and bouquet garni with a touch of cinnamon stick. Medium to full-bodied, the palate bursts with bright, expressive black and red fruit flavors, framed by firm, fine-grained tannins and loads of freshness, finishing on a lingering spicy note." www.robertparker.com
    5. WA 92, WS 91, V 94, JS 97

      "The 2019 Le Petit Mouton is flat-out gorgeous. The energy, tension and delineation here are all first class. There is no doubt in my mind that in a previous era, this could have been a First Growth wine. Maybe not in a truly great vintage, but certainly in anything less than that. Bright red-toned fruit, rose petal, mint and blood orange all run through the 2019, lending notable depth to play off the wine's freshness. I am every bit as excited about the Petit Mouton as I was en primeur. It is a fabulous wine in every way. Wow!" www.vinous.com
    6. WA 92, V 93, JS 96

      "The 2019 Carruades de Lafite is rich and expansive, bursting with aromas of ripe berries, violets, spice box, cedar and cassis. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, it's broad and generous, with a more exotic, extravagant profile than the grand vin but also levels of concentration and character that exceed what was the case a decade ago. In recent years, Lafite has actually ripped up parcels that routinely never made it into the grand vin—and the grand vin now includes more and more Cabernet Sauvignon. Even if Carruades now contains less Merlot than was historically the case (27% in 2019), I suspect it's benefiting from the inclusion of Merlot that would have formerly made it into the assemblage of Lafite itself." www.robertparker.com
    7. WA 91, WS 91, V 94, JS 93-94

      "The 2019 Réserve de la Comtesse is elegant, silky and nuanced, with terrific presence and tons of pure class. Crushed red berry fruit, mint, blood orange, rose petal and spice all build with a bit of aeration. I am so impressed with the wine's breath and textural intensity. The 2019 Réserve is without a doubt one of the best recent editions here". www.vinous.com
    8. WS 90, V 90

      "Juicy, featuring racy-edged plum and black currant fruit flavors that show nice purity, with lively anise and apple wood accents filtering in through the finish, where a subtle note of charcoal chimes. Modest in scale but nicely done. " www.winespectator.com
    9. WA 91+, V 94, JS 96

      "The 2019 La Croix Ducru-Beaucaillou is matured for 12 months in 60 % new oak. Interestingly, that Earl Grey tincture continues to define this very classically styled wine, enhancing the black fruit. Hints of ash emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and plenty of graphite-infused black fruit that render this quite Pauillac in style. Impressively persistent on the tobacco-tinged finish." www.vinous.com
    10. WA 90, WS 90, V 93, JS 95

      "The 2019 Le Petit Lion is excellent, offering up lots of dark berries, plums, pencil shavings and loamy soil, followed by a medium to full-bodied, deep and lively palate that’s nicely concentrated, concluding with a long, saline finish. It’s produced from vines within the clos of Léoville-Las Cases itself—mainly young-vine Cabernet Sauvignon and old-vine, less optimally exposed Merlot in a block that borders Latour." www.robertparker.com
    11. WS 90

      "Shows a flash of mesquite out front, followed quickly by blackberry and black currant preserve flavors. Features sanguine and iron notes that peek through on the grippy finish." www.winespectator.com
    12. WS 90

      "Shows a flash of mesquite out front, followed quickly by blackberry and black currant preserve flavors. Features sanguine and iron notes that peek through on the grippy finish." www.winespectator.com
    14. V 91, JS 92

      "The 2019 Les Fiefs de Lagrange is a soft, supple easygoing wine to drink now and over the next few years. Sweet red cherry, red fruit flowers, mint, blood orange, spice and rose petal perk up the finish. Readers will find a charming Saint-Julien that captures the personality of the year in spades". www.vinous.com
    15. WS 90, JS 92

      "Solidly built, showing plum and cassis notes laced with an anise hint, while singed apple wood pervades on the finish, which also features a late twinge of tar." www.winespectator.com
    16. WA 95, WS 93, V 93, JS 96

      "Given that Margaux's second wine contains plenty of fruit that made it into the grand vin just a decade or two ago, great things are to be expected from this bottling. Yet I was nonetheless taken aback by the quality of the 2019 Pavillon Rouge. Wafting from the glass with aromas of raspberries, plums and cherries mingled with rose petals and sweet spices, it's medium to full-bodied, sensual and concentrated, with beautifully refined tannins, racy acids and a long, penetrating finish. This is an exquisite Pavillon Rouge that is well worth seeking out. I confess that I don't buy many second wines, but I did purchase a case of this, with alacrity, right after tasting it." www.robertparker.com
    17. WA 91, WS 90, V 93, JS 96

      "The 2019 Alter Ego is a huge, dense wine. Ripe, exotic and packed to the core, Alter Ego makes a convincing first impression. Time in the glass brings out floral accents and redder tonalities of fruit. Partial aging in foudres has introduced an element of rigor and tension here that is so alluring in the way it complements the natural richness these wines always show." www.vinous.com
    18. V 92, JS 91

      "The 2019 Baron de Brane is a gorgeous second wine. Succulent black cherry, plum, spice and leather are front and center. This racy Margaux offers a compelling interplay of bright red-toned fruit and silky contours". www.vinous.com
    19. WA 90, V 92, JS 94

      "The 2019 La Sirène de Giscours has turned out beautifully. Soft, succulent and inviting, the 2019 is charming right out of the gate. Sweet red cherry, lavender, rose petal, spice and blood orange flesh out in a racy, sumptuous second wine that is incredibly alluring. In 2019, La Sirène is an absolute delight". www.vinous.com
    20. V 90

      "The 2019 Chevalier de Lascombes is a rich, heady wine to drink now and over the next handfull of years. Ripe black cherry, plum, spice, chocolate and tobacco are dialed up. This is an especially flamboyant style, but it works well." www.vinous.com
    21. WA 88-90, V 89-91, JS 93

      "The 2019 Blason d'Issan has a deep garnet-purple color and opens with scents of raspberry pie, warm plums and blackcurrant pastilles plus touches of garrique, tobacco leaf and dusty soil with a hint of bay leaves. Medium-bodied, the palate is refreshing with an approachable, soft texture, filling the mouth with crunchy red and black fruits, finishing with a lively herbal note." www.robertparker.com
    22. WA 90-92, V 89-91, JS 93

      "The nose is already quite complex, offering a range of savory and fruit scents including baking bread, shaved almonds, dried herbs and white grapefruit with notes of apricots and fresh pears coming through along with a waft of allspice. Medium-bodied, the palate has wonderful vitality and energy with loads of mineral nuances and a long, intensely fruited finishing. Impressive for a second wine!" www.robertparker.com
    23. WA 91, WS 92, V 92

      "With aromas of confit citrus fruit, peaches, grapefruit and pastry cream, the 2019 La Clarté de Haut-Brion is full-bodied, deep and fleshy, with a satiny attack that segues into an ample core of fruit underpinned by lively acids and chalky structure. A combined second wine for both Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion, this has turned out nicely in bottle, delivering a wine that's richer and headier in style than its 2018 predecessor." www.robertparker.com
    24. WA (89-91), V 90

      "The 2019 La Réserve de Malartic Blanc has come together nicely in élevage and now shows a bit more textural depth than it did from the barrel. Dried flowers, chamomile, citrus, almond, mint and sage linger." www.vinous.com
    25. WA 91, WS 93, V 93, JS 96

      "The 2019 Le Clarence de Haut-Brion is just as impressive as it was en primeur. Dark and brooding, Le Clarence is marked by its brooding intensity and youthful reticence. It is far from an easygoing second wine. Black cherry, graphite, incense, spice, leather and game emerge, but only over time. This is impressive, but it needs cellaring." www.vinous.com
    26. WA 92+, WS 92, V 92, JS 95

      "Unwinding in the glass with aromas of dark berries, orange rind and rich spices, framed by a deft application of cedary new oak, the 2019 La Chapelle de la Mission Haut-Brion is medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with lively acids and a more tightly wound profile than its counterpart across the street." www.robertparker.com
    28. WA 90, V 93, JS 94

      "The 2019 Haut-Bailly II is much more elegant than it was from barrel, always a great thing to see. Silky tannins wrap around a core of bright red berry, spice, tobacco, cedar and mint in the gracious, mid-weight second wine from the estate. The 2019 will surely improve in bottle, but it is pretty enticing today." www.vinous.com
    29. WA 89-91, V 90-92, JS 92

      "The 2019 Clémentin de Pape Clément is a gourgeous second wine that captures all of the personnality of the Grand Vin in a more accessible package that will be ready to drink upon release. Spice, tobacco, earthy and savory notes add layers of nuance to this pliant, beautifully textured wine." www.vinous.com

    30. WA 88-90, V 90, JS 93-94


      "The wine is aging in French oak barrels, 25% new, for approximately 15 months. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it opens with invigorating notes of black raspberries, kirsch and wild blueberries with hints of hoisin sauce, potpourri and garrigue. Medium to full-bodied, the palate delivers mouth-coating juicy black and blue fruits with a pleasant chewiness to the texture and just enough freshness, finishing savory."

      www.robertparker.com

    31. WA 93, V 93, JS 96

      "The 2019 La Petite Église has turned out brilliantly in bottle, wafting from the glass with aromas of raspberries, sweet spices, rose petals, black truffle, orange rind and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and concentrated, it's supple and enveloping, with lively acids, powdery tannins and a long, penetrating finish. These days, this isn't really a "second wine" per se, as it combines some younger vine fruit with two dedicated parcels, one located next to Pomerol's church, the other by the château of La Fleur-Pétrus." www.robertparker.com
    33. WA 91, WS 91, V 94, JS 96

      "The 2019 Petit Cheval is a stunning second wine - if it can even be called that. In 2019, Petit Cheval is a blend of four parcels that were in the Grand Vin in 2018. Dark, supple and expressive, the 2019 offers up an exotic mélange of black cherry, spice, new leather and graphite, all of which build effortlessly in te glass." www.vinous.com
    34. WA 93, V 94, JS 96

      "The 2019 Chapelle d'Ausone is dense, powerful and beautifully layered in the glass. Wild red cherry, plum, exotic spice, dried flowers, mocha, rose petal and espresso are some of the many notes that give the bouquet its beguiling personality. There's real textural intensity and resonance here. As has been the case for some time, Chapelle d'Ausone is superb. If anything, it suffers from the perception of being a "second wine". It is that only a name". www.vinous.com
    35. WA 91-93, V 92, JS 95

      "The 2019 Le Carillon d'Angélus has turned out beautifully. Succulent and racy core to the core, with gorgeous understated balance, the 2019 is impeccable from start to finish. Dark red fruit, chocolate, new leather and spice are nicely pushed forward. The 60 % new oak is a bit prominent at this stage. It will be interesting to see how that plays out over time." www.vinous.com
    36. WA 92-94, V 91, JS 93

      "Deep garnet-purple colored, it comes charging out of the glass with energetic notes of freshly crushed blackberries, boysenberries and red and black plums with fragrant touches of garrigue, violets, star anise and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is completely coated with black, blue and red fruits, featuring velvety tannins and an invigorating undercurrent of freshness, finishing long and perfumed." www.robertparker.com
    37. V 93, JS 93

      "The 2019 Petit-Figeac is a fabulous second wine. Bright and effusive, the 2019 is positively stellar. This blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot exudes class. Sweet floral and spice accents lift a core of pliant fruit in this engagimg Saint-Émilion. The 2019 is flat-out gorgeous". www.vinous.com
