'These are wines that you are going to love drinking,' says Jane Anson in her in-bottle report. See the updated ratings below.

Introduction by Chris Mercer.

A big success in 2016, because the higher levels of limestone and clay in the soils withstood the drought better than some gravels,’ wrote Jane Anson after tasting St-Estèphe wines en primeur.
