Robert Parker: 91-93, Neal Martin: 96, James Suckling: 100

Neal Martin: The 2015 Beaus̩jour Duffau-Lagarosse is a major surprise, far better than it showed just 12 months ago. There is a superb bouquet, very floral and mineral driven, a mixture of red/black fruit that soars from the glass. The palate is very well defined with supple tannin, silky, crisp and focused with a fine bead of acidity, and wonderful tension on the finish.
