There’s a finesse and refinement to this with wonderful length and beauty for the estate. Medium body. Fine tannins and a bright and pretty finish. A purity and brightness. Drink after 2024. Rating: 92 James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com (May 2023)

The 2020 Le Coteau is a mystery. Quite powerful en primeur, today Le Coteau is light bodied and quite delicate. There's lovely red fruit and spice character, but not much depth, complexity or finesse in the tannins. Drink this airy, perfumed Margaux over the next handful of years. Drinking range: 2023 - 2028 Rating: 87 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Feb 2023)
The 2020 Le Coteau has a concentrated nose with blackberry and briary fruit, quite earthy, maybe just missing a bit of elegance and style. The palate is medium-bodied with rather "thick" tannins, attractive mulberry and blackberry fruit. A little confit in style towards the finish though cohesive and quite persistent. Drink over the next decade. Drinking range: 2023 - 2033 Rating: 88 Neal Martin, www.vinous.com (Feb 2023)
The 2020 Le Coteau is a dark, potent Margaux. There's not a ton of finesse here, but the 2020 certainly packs a good punch. Black cherry, gravel, smoke and licorice linger. Drinking range: 2025 - 2035 Rating: 86-88 Antonio Galloni, www.vinous.com (Jun 2021)
