“Aromas of plum and leather, with a signature note of very ripe Cabernet. A round and smooth attack with lovely ripeness; an airy, lingering body, framed by rather fine yet distinctly present tannins. The overall impression is slightly toasty. ” (Terre de Vins 2020) - Delivery in a wooden case is available for orders of 6 bottles of this wine (depending on the country and selected shipping method)

Wine rated (2020 guide) 93/100

Rated estate (2017 guide): 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)

About the wine:

The most well-balanced wine—in terms of body, bouquet, and tannins—ever produced by this estate at this stage. A must-buy for its astonishing value and aging potential worthy of the very best classified growths.

About the estate:

Since the Mommeja family (Hermès) acquired the estate in 2006, the two brothers, Laurent and Renaud, have undertaken major renovations: first, the production facilities—the fermentation tanks and wine cellar—along with the restructuring of the vineyard. Caroline Artaud, technical director, has helped the wines reach new heights with the support of Éric Boissenot, a renowned winemaker.

Rated estate (2017 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

The spectacular progress made by this Listrac estate since its acquisition by the Momméja family (Hermès) has now established it as one of the appellation’s leading wines. Renaud and his brother Laurent Momméja spare no effort to allow the wine to express its full potential. The vineyard has been completely revitalized, and a state-of-the-art winemaking facility has been built. An excellent value that’s not to be missed.

Wine rated (2022 guide) 93/100

About the wine:

A very pleasant nose of plums, spices, and dried flowers, followed by a medium-bodied palate with creamy, refined tannins. Nice acidity on the finish. It just needs a few years to develop and become a delightful wine to enjoy.
Le Figaro Wines

Wine rated (2022 guide) 91/100

About the wine:

A clear, inviting nose of blueberries. Pure and straightforward on the palate, with lovely fruit and notes of raspberry and fresh wood. The finish could be more lingering.

Terre de Vins

Wine rated (2020 guide) 94-95/100

About the wine:

Aromas of plum and leather, with a distinct note of very ripe Cabernet. The attack is round and smooth, with lovely ripeness; the body is airy and lingering, framed by tannins that are fairly fine yet distinctly present. The overall impression is slightly toasty.
Anthocyanins - Yohan Castaing

Anthocyanes - Yohan Castaing

Wine rated (2020 guide) 92/100

About the wine:

A beautifully aromatic, refined, and delicate nose, with black fruits, blackcurrant, and floral notes—bright and vibrant. The palate is full-bodied, well-structured, and perfectly balanced, with lovely tannins and a long, lingering finish. The brightness of the nose is also evident on the palate. A truly outstanding wine. This estate is becoming a benchmark in the appellation.
