From rocky soils high in active limestone, the 2017 Saint-Véran Les Crèches unfurls with scents of citrus fruit, crisp yellow apple and a deft touch of new oak. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and textural, with considerable concentration, a bright spine of acidity and a long finish. This is a muscular wine this year, and it should evolve with interest for a decade. Score: 91 William Kelley, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2019-2029 30 August 2019 |

The 2017 Saint-Véran Les Crèches has a wonderful, expressive bouquet of yellow plum, mirabelle and Golden Delicious apple, underpinned by a subtle mineralité. The palate is fresh and vibrant with crisp acidity and real flintiness coming through toward the finish, which shows great persistence. Saint-Véran at its best. Score: 92 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2020-2030 01 January 2019 |

Once again a notably ripe yet fresh nose offers up notes of pear, apple and soft floral scents that introduce punch and relatively generous middle weight flavors that tighten up just enough to retain reasonably good delineation on the mildly warm and acceptably complex finale. Score: 87 - 89 Allen Meadows, Burghound Maturity: 2019+ 15 October 2018 |
