Vinous - Neal Martin (86-88)The 2019 de Côme has quite a tight blackberry and soy tinged nose that doesn't quite match my expectations. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, quite saline in the mouth but it needs more depth and complexity on the finish. |

Wine Advocate (97)The de Fargues 2007 delivers 13.9% alcohol and 134 grams of residual sugar. Picking commenced on September 11, with slow botrytis formation and recommenced October 2-24, the picking ale to be conducted at a relatively leisurely pace. It has a very typical de Fargues nose that has lost its tongue at first, but it opens up to reveal a slightly spirituous bouquet with clear honey, pressed flowers, almond and a distant scent of the sea. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins and outstanding delineation. It is utterly harmonious with a thrilling, edgy finish that expresses the terroir with great clarity. There is an effervescent quality that really takes the 2007 to another level, while the marmalade and white pepper finish is powerful and leaves a lasting impression. This is a fabulous 2007, one of the wines of the vintage. Tasted April 2013. |

Through this intricate process, Ferrand 2010 develops its sophisticated character, offering a nuanced bouquet of blackcurrants, licorice, and truffle, wrapped in pleasant tannins that speak to its impressive ageing potential. Reflecting the excellence of its producer, Château de Ferrand, a Grand Cru Classé since 2012, Ferrand 2010 has alluring depth and a characteristically long finish, making it a sublime choice for discerning wine enthusiasts. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (88)The 2014 de Ferrand is bold, powerful and juicy. There is not much subtlety here. Even so, the 2014 packs a real punch and offers plenty of intensity in a bold, rustic style. Black cherry, plum, bittersweet chocolate, cloves, menthol and a generous slathering of oak build into the opulent finish. This is in a powerful, extracted style, but there is enough balance to make the wine well worth seeking out. It would be interesting to see what the wine might taste like with less oak and a gentler approach to vinification. Tasted two times. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (93)The 2016 de Ferrand is a gorgeous and wonderfully complete wine. Aromatic and yet also deep on the palate, with superb balance, the 2016 is going to be impossible to resist, even in the early going. Sweet red cherry, plum, French oak, rose petal, mint, spice and pomegranate all run through this silky, open-knit Saint-Émilion. There is so much to like in this plush yet understated, classy Saint-Émilion. Tasted two times. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (92+)The 2019 de Ferrand is built on energy and vibrancy. It offers perhaps a bit less immediacy than many wines in this vintage, but a good deal of potential. Crushed flowers, sweet red berry fruit, mint, tobacco, blood orange, cinnamon and cedar give the 2019 its palpable sense of energy. I would give the 2019 a few years to come together. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (87)The 2020 Château de Ferrand has retained its "breezy" bouquet with upfront, red cherries, raspberry coulis and floral scents; orange zest is hiding in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins. As I found previously, it feels a bit rigid and needs more flair on its briny finish. Not bad at all, but I feel this could have been better. |

Jeb Dunnuck (94)A blend of 66% Merlot and 34% Cabernet Franc, the 2022 Château De Ferrand is deep ruby/plum-hued and offers terrific aromatics of red and black cherries, new leather, savory tobacco, and iron.
