Critic reviews
"The 2024 Marquis d'Alesme Becker has a clean, fresh and well-defined bouquet with pure black cherry and blueberry fruit. Hints of crushed violet develop in the glass. This has the composure of its "sibling," the Labégorce. The palate is medium-bodied, fresh and crisp with pliant tannins and a very harmonious, poised finish. This is promising, and hopefully the quality will be replicated in bottle."
Neal Martin, April 2025, Vinous.com
"The 2024 Marquis d'Alesme is solid, if not particularly exciting. Floral overtones meld into red-toned fruit, cinnamon, blood orange, mocha and espresso. The 2024 is a technically accomplished wine, but one that does not convey anything particularly distinctive."
Antonio Galloni, April 2025, Vinous.com
"A mellow, velvety and juicy red with red berries and chocolate flakes. Medium-bodied with fine tannins. Caressing texture to the dense core of fruit and good length to the finish."
James Suckling, May 2025, JamesSuckling.com
"Really lovely quality, so much texture and depth, violet flowers, sweet plum character, perhaps a little sour acidity also, we are fully in push and pull territory, well constructed, powerful but the tannins are hard on the finish. 50% new oak. Harvest 24 September to 8 October. 55% new oak. 3.65 pH. 35 hl/ha yield. The blend is the plantation."
