"A new vintage of this best-seller with a fruity, fresh, and fairly full-bodied style!"
“With a rather opulent style, characterized by floral and fruity aromas, and a hint of vanilla from barrel aging, this wine does the job. Full-bodied, round, and well-structured, with still-tight tannins, it pairs well with grilled duck breast or duck with olives. ” (Hachette Guide 2025) - A Bordeaux Supérieur that’s very enjoyable to drink on any occasion!

Wine noted (guide 2025) 1*Star (Very successful wine)
About the wine:
With a rather opulent style, characterized by floral and fruity aromas, along with a hint of vanilla from barrel aging, this wine does the job. Full-bodied, round, and well-structured, with tannins that are still tight, it pairs well with grilled duck breast or duck with olives. 2025–2029

Wine rated (2026 guide) 88/100
Rated estate (2022 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Starting with the family vineyard on the right bank in Vérac, near Fronsac, Hervé Lhuillier has established a true premium Bordeaux brand, built on the foundations of depth, authenticity, and carefully controlled oak aging. New vines of Sauvignon, Malbec, and Petit Verdot, planted on exposed limestone (the quarries are open to visitors), will soon begin production. While the density-sorting machine brought greater precision to the 2018 vintage, we remain unsatisfied with the somewhat excessive extraction and aging. Let’s give the wines time to settle before considering removing the star.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 89/100
Rated estate (2022 guide) Recommended
About the wine:
A pleasantly fruity nose of strawberries, raspberries, and licorice. This medium-bodied red wine is fresh and juicy, with slightly bitter tannins reminiscent of tea. Best enjoyed in 2025.
Yves Beck
Wine rated (2023 guide) 89-91/100
About the wine:
The bouquet of the Fleur Haut Gaussens is very inviting. It immediately reveals fruit and freshness through hints of mint and red berries. This freshness carries through to the palate. With good body, the wine displays tannins that are still somewhat angular, but they are well-integrated, and there is enough substance to round it all out. 2027–2037

Wine rated (2025 guide) 89/100
About the wine:
A deep purple color with violet highlights and a black core. An intense, slightly airy nose with notes of blackberry and violet. On the palate, firm tannins, fairly full-bodied, and a lovely finish.
