Revue du Vin de France : 90-91/100 « Une jolie couleur violine, juvénile, un grain fougueux, un joli vin à l’attaque tendre et à la fermeté tannique. Bien défini. »
Bettane & Desseauve : 90/100 « Pivoine et fruits bleus se mêlent de belle façon. La bouche offre un profil vertical. »
Galloni : 86-88/100 « The 2023 Puygueraud is laced with dark red cherry, blood orange, plum, spice, dried herbs, mocha and licorice. It has good intensity but also dries out a bit on the close. This is the first vintage to include some Malbec in the blend. It will be interesting to see if this softens with élevage. »
