Sandalwood, espresso and tar notes are overt on the opening, but they are balanced by attractive brambled black fruits, and this is showing a sleek tannic character. Antoine Medeville consultant. No need to wait the full 10 years for this to soften - think six or seven years. Score: 91 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2030-2048 Date: 02 May 2024 |

The 2023 Desmirail is a savory, aromatic style of Margaux. Crushed flowers, sage, cedar, sweet pipe tobacco and mint all grace this mid-weight, nuanced Margaux from Denis Lurton. Score: 90 - 92 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2027-2038 Date: 30 April 2024 |

The 2023 Desmirail follows in the footsteps of a couple of vintages that have been “perplexing" at this prenatal juncture. The aromatics here are more convincing, with blackberry, briar and light cedar scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, a keen line of acidity and a brightness on the finish that complements the polished fruit. Hints of cracked black pepper linger on the aftertaste. Back to form! Score: 91 - 93 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2027-2042 Date: 29 April 2024 |

Attractive currant and berry notes here with some caramel from the new wood for now. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins and a slightly short finish. Wait and see. Score: 90 - 91 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com Date: 24 April 2024 |
