Vinous - Antonio Galloni (96)The 2023 Hosanna is polished, silky and exceptionally beautiful. Inky dark fruit, cloves, new leather, lavender and chocolate caress the palate. The 2023 is a decidedly restrained Hosanna—more finesse than power. That makes it something of a stylistic departure, and also a Pomerol I find hugely compelling. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (90)The 2018 Jean Faure is a vintage that I had tasted just a few weeks earlier as part of my vintage report, but I expressed reservations, and so I did not mind re-tasting another example so soon afterward. This was better and, I hope, more representative. It has a similar nose, light but better-defined than the previous bottles, with graphite-tinged black fruit. The main difference is that there is no green trait on the palate. Quite compact but with decent delineation, this is much more what I would expect from a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru, and my score reflects this. |

Vinous - Ian D'Agata (87-89)Good bright ruby-red. Aromas of blackberry, violet and bitter chocolate, along with some strong oak tones. At once dense and nicely aromatic, showing good breadth for the year but also the tougher tannins that characterize so many 2011s. Finishes with good length, though. |

Jeb Dunnuck (90)The 2017 Chateau Joanin Becot checks in as a blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc from healthy yields of 35 hl/ha that spent 16 months in 50% new French ok. It has a juicy, forward, delicious style that offers lots of black cherry and mulberry fruit as well as plenty of earth, forest floor, and leafy herb aromas and flavors. This classic, elegant 2017 has terrific purity, bright acidity, a complex, layered style, and outstanding length. It's not a blockbuster but just classic all the way. |

Jancis Robinson (16)90% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc. 20 hl/ha (half the usual volume due to hail). No SO2 (at this stage). Cask sample. Pretty floral nose with violet notes. Hint of boiled sweets/hard candy as well. Lively and fruity, the tannins well honed. Touch of oak from the prise de bois but should settle. (JL) 14% |
