- 18/20 Punkte, RENE GABRIELS Bordeaux total, Andre Kunz: „Dichtes, frisches, fein florales, kräftiges Bouquet, Himbeergelee, Minze, fein Kräuter, helle Pralinen. Dichtverwobener, feingliedriger Gaumen mit feiner, frischer, kräftiger Frucht, viel feinem Tannin, eleganter Struktur, vielfältiger, kräftiger, süsser Aromatik, langer, kräftiger, frischer Abgang. Kann noch zulegen. 2027 – 2050“

- 94 Punkte, JEB DUNNUCK (03/2024): „Another brilliant wine from this team, the 2021 Clos Saint-Martin reveals a medium ruby hue to go with a gorgeous array of black cherries, redcurrants, smoked tobacco, chalky minerality, and spice. It's medium-bodied and elegant, which is very much in the vintage, yet it has beautiful mid-palate depth, ripe, velvety tannins, and flawless overall balance. It's a beautiful wine that readers should buy a case of for drinking over the coming 15 years. 2024-2039“

- 93 Punkte, DECANTER Georgina Hindle: „Cocoa, smoked blackberries, wild herbs and liquorice-touched dark fruits on the nose. Juicy and mouthwatering, the terroir showing through with a crushed stone and graphite texture and flavour coming in on the mid-palate. This has a lovely refinement to it, the cool fresh touches of eucalyptus, the pencil lead flavour and fine tannins as well as bright strawberry and raspberry fruits which give this a playful edge. Everything seems balanced and well judged with structure and presence in the mouth. Great quality. 2026-2040“

- 93 Punkte, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider: „Licorice, plums, chocolate, strawberry, espresso, smoke and black cherry form the core of the perfume. Soft, silky, fresh and vibrant, the wine is medium-bodied with a nice freshness to the elegant and supple-textured fruits in the finish. Drink from 2023-2038.“

- 93 Punkte, Adrian van Velsen – vvWine.ch: „Dichte Farbe. Die Nase ist sehr schön, viel Frucht, klar und rein, Brombeeren, schwarze Kirschen, kühle Mineralik. Der Auftakt ist straff, konzentriert, nicht überextrahiert, schöne Balance aus knackiger Frucht und einer guten Tanninstruktur, die Säure hält frisch und trägt den Wein in einen langen Abgang. Sehr schön, auch dieses Jahr. 2026-2043“

- 93 Punkte, VINOUS, Antonio Galloni (12/2023): „The 2021Cols Saint-Martin is an elegant, polished wine. Crushed rose petal, spice, bolld orange, cedar, mint and kirsch all open in an understateted, classy Saint Emilion that captures the more gracious side of the year in style. 2029-2041“
