This is very nicely done with a lithe yet structured core of dark fruit and round, juicy tannins. Medium to full body, a driven line of acidity and a long finish. - jamessuckling.com, April 2018

The 2017 Meyney has a clean and fresh bouquet with blackberry and raspberry fruit mingling with cedar and light cigar humidor aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent, ripe tannin and a fine bead of acidity. I find this surprisingly juicy in style that probably belies the structure underneath. This will be one of the more approachable Saint-Estèphe wines in this vintage, but one that I find well made. - vinous.com, May 2018

Medium to deep garnet-purple, the 2017 Meyney opens a little broody, giving way to red cherries, black berries and stewed tea scents with a waft of dried herbs. Medium-bodied, the palate is chock-full of vibrant black fruits with ripe, grainy tannins and a refreshing kick to the finish.

Two thousand seventeen is a very fine vintage for Meyney. A powerful, resonant Saint-Estèphe, the 2017 is endowed with striking aromatics that give the wine a bit more freshness than has been the case in some recent vintages. Dark red-toned fruit, leather, smoke and grilled herb overtones add nuance throughout. This is one of the finer recent vintages I have tasted from Meyney. Winemaker Anne Le Naour did a terrific job with the 2017. The blend is 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 11% Petit Verdot, aged in 40% new barrels. Tasted three times. - vinous.com, May 2018

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Meyney features baked cherries, mulberries and plum preserves on the nose with hints of smoked meats and black olives. The palate is medium-bodied, firm, grainy and a little tart with good fruit expression and length.

Tasted blind. Mid ruby colour. Savoury spices, camphor and tobacco together with earthy fruit. Muscular, rich structure. Good bones that are mouth-coating and chewy. The fruit remains intense – bright and red – without being heavy. Sinewy. Perhaps a little too dry to finish but good ambition. (TP)

58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 31% Merlot, 11% Petit Verdot. 57.9 hl/ha. Harvested 15 September to 5 October. Crimson hue, lighter at the rim. More of a red-fruit spectrum with a hint of spice and dash of vanilla oak. Smooth attack, the fruit juicy on the follow-through. Firm but refined tannins. Medium weight. More than correct. Classic with modern polish. (JL)

Deep cherry red with purple rim. A hint of savoury oak on the nose but plenty of black fruit to hold sway. An inviting and subtle dusty overlay. Pretty oaky on the palate – unusual in this vintage – but the char is quite definite. Just fresh enough but I hope it takes on more flesh before bottling. Tough and charry on the finish. (JH)
