94 points-Vinous “Another sleeper from Saint-Estphe, the 2016 Phlan Sgur is super impressive. An enticing bouquet laced with crushed rocks, graphite, iron, smoke, lavender, mint and inky blue/purplish fruit makes a strong opening statement. A wine of power, resonance and gravitas, the 2016 Phlan is remarkably expressive and also full of potential. (AG)” (1/2019)
