"Ripe black fruits and soft tannins mark a wine that is almost ready to drink. Vibrant berry flavors go with fine acidity. Drink from 2023." -RV, 12/31/22
(85-87) Points - Wine Advocate
"The 2020 Bourdieu sports a deep garnet-purple color and notes of stewed black plums, blackberry preserves and underbrush, plus wafts of dried herbs and dusty soil. The medium-bodied palate offers a good amount of expressive black fruits with a soft texture and lively backbone, finishing with an herbal lift." -LPB, 6/30/21
