Score 91/100 · Drink 2019-2029, Jeb Dunnuck, Feb 2019

Lots of black fruits, cassis, and leafy herb/tobacco notes emerge from the 2016 Château Couhins-Lurton. Medium-bodied, straight, focused, and with some subtle background oak, it has fine tannins, a charming, balanced profile, and will evolve for at least a decade.

Score 93/100 · James Suckling, Jan 2019

Wonderful, fresh floral, grapefruit and passion-fruit aromas on the nose of this delicious white Pessac-Léognan that’s ripe, but only medium-bodied with a long, very vibrant finish. Drink or hold.

Score 89/100 · Drink 2018-2024, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Jan 2019

The 2016 Couhins-Lurton is a delicious, fruity wine to drink now and over the next few years, while the jammy, red berry fruit retains its youthful vibrancy. Expressive spice notes add nuance to the super-ripe red plum fruit.

Score 92/100 · Drink 2020-2032, Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate, Nov 2018

The 2016 Couhins-Lurton is medium to deep garnet-purple in color and has a plummy nose with underlying forest floor, bay leaves, yeast extract and unsmoked cigars scents plus a waft of pencil shavings. Medium-bodied and firmly framed with ripe, grainy tannins, it has great energy and freshness, finishing with lingering crushed rocks and savory hints.
