"Very nice fruity expression!"
"A beautiful, fruity expression marked by notes of lime, grapefruit, and white pepper. The wine is delicious, juicy, balanced, and thirst-quenching. The finish is fruity, salty, and persistent, ideally supported and extended by a noble bitterness. A great success! " (Yves Beck 2022)

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2016 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
The Despagne family owns five properties and 300 hectares of vineyards planted with traditional Bordeaux grape varieties. The Despagnes' dedication, inventiveness, and expertise mean that all their wines, particularly those from their flagship properties, Tour de Mirambeau and Rauzan Despagne, could serve as a model for many Bordeaux wines: always flattering but never straying far from classic Bordeaux style.

Wine rated (2022 guide) 88/100
About wine:
Bright and lively in the glass, with a hint of lemon and lime zest and a tangy sorbet-like fruit flavor, giving it a peak of intensity. Apricot and pineapple too, tart, sweet, and ripe—there's a lot going on here, but it's well-balanced and easy to enjoy and drink. 2022-2029
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2016 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
A former market town redesigned in the 19th century, commanding a vast 100-hectare vineyard acquired in 1998 by the Despagne family (Rauzan Despagne, Bel Air Perponcher, Tour de Mirambeau, Lion Beaulieu). A consistently high-quality wine that has been highly regarded in China ever since it was compared to a Freddie Mercury concert in the famous manga series Les Gouttes de Dieu.
Vinous
Wine rated (2022 guide) 90-92/100
About wine:
The 2021 Blanc has a well-defined bouquet with a subtle minerality. The palate is well-balanced with lively acidity and fairly sharp tart lemon notes, but it retains superb balance and confidence right through to the finish. 2024 - 2030
Le Figaro vins
Wine rated (2022 guide) 89/100
About wine:
Particularly shy at first, the Sauvignon does not hesitate to show a side of its personality that is all about moderation. On the palate, the texture is still a little abrupt, with marked acidity, citrus notes, and a slightly chalky side. Let's wait for it to mellow. 2024–2030
