- Robert Parkers WINE ADVOCATE, Lisa Perrotti-Brown: "The 2016 Malartic Lagraviere is blended of 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot. Medium to deep garnet-purple in color, it opens with wild blueberries and black cherries with cassis, bay leaves and dark chocolate nuances plus a hint of charcoal. Medium-bodied with a lively backbone and solid frame of ripe, rounded tannins, it finishes with an herbal lift."
- 96 Punkte und "Cellar Selection" WINE ENTHUSIAST, Roger Voss: "The Bonnie family's estate has produced a richly structured wine, full of the ripe tannins indicative of the vintage. To balance the structure, powerful flavors of black currant and dark berries give ripeness. It is a wine to age; drink after 2026."
- WINESPECTATOR, James Molesworth: "Ripe and fresh, with bright cherry, plum and currant pâte de fruit flavors that have a racy edge while roasted apple wood, sweet tobacco and red licorice notes fill in through the lengthy finish. Thoroughly delicious, and approachable now or capable of some cellaring. Drink now through 2030. 11,250 cases made."
- 95 Punkte VINOUS, Neal Martin: "The 2016 Malartic-Lagravière has a wonderful bouquet of perfumed, mainly red fruit laced with potpourri, black olive tapenade and light brine-like aromas - a bouquet full of personality. The fresh, harmonious palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine bead of acidity and just the right amount of salinity toward the loam-tinged finish. Bon vin from the Bonnies."
- 95 Punkte FALSTAFF, Peter Moser: "Dunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, dezente Randaufhellung, attraktive schwarze Beerenfrucht, zart nach Pflaumen und Honig, tabakige Nuancen, facettenreiches Bukett. Kraftvoll, saftig und komplex, schokoladige Textur, gut integrierte Tannine, verfügt über Länge und gutes Reifepotenzial."
- 95 Punkte DECANTER, Jane Anson: "The colour is rich and deep but with luminosity that gives nuance and fresh air. It's a lovely 2016, poised but not as powerful as some in the vintage, yet every inch the sophisticated reflection of the appellation. Restrained grilled berry fruits take their time to unfurl. It's still very closed but the liquorice and slate notes become clearer after 10 minutes in the glass, and the wine has already deepened in the few years since bottling. 3% Petit Verdot completes the blend. Yield 46hl/ha. Drinking Window 2026 – 2042"
- 94 Punkte JEB DUNNUCK: "As to the red, the grand vin is the 2016 Château Malartic-Lagravière (53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and the balance Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot). Aged in 80% new barrels and hitting 13.5% natural alcohol, it offers a deep purple color with beautiful cassis, tobacco, crushed rocks, and subtle incense aromas and flavors. Balanced, medium to full-bodied, and straight-up seamless on the palate, it’s another brilliant Graves that offers ample pleasure today yet will keep for 20+ years or more."
- 96 Punkte JAMES SUCKLING: "I love the deep and complex nose, in which the cassis and mint of cabernet sauvignon are beautifully married to the more generous blackberry of ripe merlot and the vanilla and toasty notes from the oak are marvelously integrated. On the palate it creeps up on you slowly; the first impression is ripe yet delicate, then the fine-grained tannins charge through and light up the sky. Very long finish. Drink or hold."
- 17,5 Punkte VINUM, Bordeaux Extra Primeur 2016: „Alles stimmt an diesem herrlichen, hervorragend gemachten, fröhlichen und doch raffinierten, saftig-fruchtigen Wein mit dem knackigen Johannisbeerfinale. Einmal abgefüllt auch 18 Punkte wert.“
