The 2016 Larcis Ducasse is a drop-dead gorgeous beauty. Silky, supple and gracious to the core, it possesses exceptional textural finesse and nuance from start to finish. Nothing is out place; instead, in 2016 Larcis impresses with its poise, depth and centeredness. Super-ripe dark cherry, plum, chocolate, spice and lavender infuse the creamy, resonant finish, and all the richness of this south-facing site comes through loud and clear. Quite simply, the 2016 is an exceptional Larcis. Don’t miss it! Tasted four times.”


95-96/100 James Suckling :This is very polished and beautiful with ultra-fine tannins and a long, linear finish. It has a density and beauty that seduces you.”

94-97/100 James Molesworth – Wine spectator :This is really flattering, offering crushed raspberry, boysenberry and plum fruit stitched with dried anise, bramble and chalky threads. Long, elegant, spice-infused finish.”

97/100 JM Quarin :
Le meilleur jamais fait ! Couleur sombre, intense, noire et pourpre. Nez intense, fin, fruité, floral, frais, mûr, avec une touche très originale de violette. Entrée en bouche délicate, au toucher de suite raffiné. Le vin monte en milieu de bouche, particulièrement savoureux et nuancé dans son toucher et ses arômes. Fondant, très élégant dans son déroulé, il vient s’achever long et très, très parfumé, suave, avec un grain de tanin fin. C’est remarquable et incrachable ! Assemblage : 87 % merlot, 13 % cabernet franc. Degré d’alcool : 14,4º, pH : 3.45, ce qui est le plus bas jamais vu sur la propriété. Ce vin a 50 à 70 ans de vie devant lui.The best ever.”

96-98/100 Jeff Leve – The Wine Cellar Insider : This is incredibly rich, sensuous, full bodied and deep. Between the tannins and fruit, I cannot decide which is more polished or has more finesse. With lavish textures, waves of fruit and a velvet mouth feel, this is an outstanding wine with tremendous character. Made from a blend of 87% Merlot, harvested October 12 to October 20 and 13% Cabernet Franc, picked on October 18 and 19, the wine reached 14.4% alcohol with a pH of 3.45.”
