Wine Spectator: 92 Points
Warm and alluring with steeped plum and black currant fruit layered with tobacco juniper and cast iron accents. Very solid. Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2022 through 2030. 5166 cases made.
Jeb Dunnuck: 90 Points
Cassis plum chocolate and hints of licorice all emerge from the 2017 Chateau Les Trois Croix and this ripe medium-bodied plump and textured Fronsac offers loads of pleasure. It's nicely balanced has good purity and should keep for at least 7-8 years. It's worth seeking out.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
Deep garnet-purple colored the 2017 Les Trois Croix leaps from the glass with notions of Morello cherries black raspberries and boysenberries plus wafts of lavender Ceylon tea and forest floor. Medium-bodied the palate delivers mouth-coating red and black fruit preserves with ripe rounded tannins and a refreshing lift to the finish.
James Suckling: 90 Points
Attractive dark plums berries and baking spices here. The palate has been nicely massaged to deliver ample dark-fruit flesh. A blend of 85% merlot and 15% cabernet franc. Drink or hold.
