Wine Advocate (89)Another sleeper of the vintage, Senejac’s 2010 (a blend of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc with a touch of Petit Verdot) exhibits wonderful intensity, an opaque purple color, and opulent blackberry and blueberry fruit along with hints of charcoal, white chocolate and graphite. This lush, heady, rich wine is a considerable over-achiever from this property in the northern Medoc that can be drunk over the next 6-8 years. |

Wine Advocate (98)Deep garnet colored, the 2010 Smith Haut Lafitte delivers notes of baked plums, boysenberries and dried mulberries with an undercurrent of cigar box, new leather and bouquet garni. Full-bodied, the palate has firm, grainy tannins and bold freshness supporting the maturing fruit, finishing on a stewed tea note. |

The Wine Cellar Insider (97)Intense, attention seeking notes of lemon, lime, flowers and stone open to a wine with depth, richness and concentration. The wine is long, fresh, plush and polished with plush textures and a mélange of citrus and mineral sensations. There is a purity to the sweet fruits that remain on your palate for close to 40 seconds. |

Jane Anson Inside Bordeaux (95)Fennel, black chocolate, crushed roses, cassis, blackberry, will run and run, and is exceptional value, particularly in the context of the vintage. Tasted ex-retail, not ex-chateau. Harvest September 24 to October 12. 100% new oak for ageing, native yeast fermentation. One corked bottle, second tasted exceptional. |

Jeb Dunnuck (97)The 2010 Château Tertre Roteboeuf showed beautifully, with a pure, layered, incredibly elegant profile. The classic Mitjavile style of cassis, darker raspberries, white chocolate, and smoky, tobacco notes are all present, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a pure, seamless, layered mouthfeel, integrated tannins, and a great finish. It's just now showing some secondary evolution, and I suspect it has another two decades of prime drinking ahead of it. Drink 2025-2045. |

Jeb Dunnuck (100)The 2010 Château Valandraud is every bit as stunning as it was on release. Still vivid purple/plum in color, it delivers a powerful, layered bouquet of blackcurrants, tobacco, truffle, and spice, with a deep sense of purity and polish. Full-bodied and plush on the palate, it has ultra-fine tannins and a seamless, mouthfilling texture that makes it hard to put down. This is a thrilling Saint-Emilion with richness, depth, and balance, and it’s drinking beautifully today while promising another 2-3 decades of evolution. Drink 2025-2055. |

Full-bodied, rich and seductive in the mouth, it is laden with layers of black and blue fruit preserves, framed by super plush tannins, finishing epically long and perfumed. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (92)The 2010 Villemaurine is another Saint-Émilion with an extremely ripe and extrovert bouquet, yet still attractive with maraschino cherries, allspice, cloves and hung game. The palate is sweet on the entry, supple and well balanced. I like the acidity here that counterbalances the inherent richness of this wine, corpulent towards the finish. Drinking perfectly now. Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 10-Year On Bordeaux horizontal. |
