James Suckling

Dark and blue fruits with hints of walnut, dark spices and chocolate orange. Medium-bodied, plush and juicy with an array of ripe, velvety tannins and a flavorful finish.

Antonio Galloni

The 2020 Vieux Maillet is pretty, floral and savory. There's a good bit of power, too, but today it is in the background. The 2020 is rich but fine.

Vert de Vin Magazine

On the nose, fruity, elegant and offers concentration, a certain intensity, a delicate texture. It reveals notes of small black berries, blackberry and more slightly zan associated with touches of camphor, black plum, grey pepper, nutmeg, fine points of violet and a discreet hint of caramelization. On the palate, fruity and offers juiciness, a nice freshness, a pleasant roundness, a flattering side of the fruit, smoothness, fatness and energy. The wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy blackcurrant, bright purple plum and subtle notes of creamy blackberry combined with hints of creamy strawberry as well as hints of caramelization, chocolate, vanilla, toasted hazelnut and coffee (in the background). Good length. The tannins are precise and mildly soft and creamy.
