Jeb Dunnuck 94pt

A blend of 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2022 Vieux Maillet is terrific, pure, and concentrated, revealing cassis, black cherry, chocolate, loamy earth, and graphite-like aromatics. Medium to full-bodied, balanced, and elegant on the palate, with fine tannins and a seamless texture, it’s a beautiful, balanced, classy wine that should evolve nicely for 20+ years

James Suckling 92pt

A juicy, ripe and plummy Pomerol with berries and spiced cherries. Medium-bodied on the palate with solid fruit and firm but dissolved tannins. Long and fleshy at the end. Drink or hold.

Vinous Media 93pt

The 2022 Vieux Maillet is a gorgeous, highly expressive Pomerol. Blue-toned fruit, lavender, mint, licorice, leather and spice build nicely as this opens in the glass. Penetrating aromatics give the Vieux Maillet much of its presence. A host of floral and savory notes extends the finish.

Wine Enthusiast 93pt

Mainly Merlot, this wine has an intense black chocolate aroma and dense tannins. It shows its youth through its structure that promises serious aging. With black fruits and ripe berry flavors, keep the wine until 2027.
