Wine Spectator: 92 Points

Lovely creamed pear, honey and yellow apple fruit flavors glide along, with a lush, rounded feel and lingering flashes of honeysuckle and apricot. Rich, but fresh and open-knit. Drink now through 2032. 2,917 cases made.

Vinous: 91 Points

The 2015 Filhot has a rather Germanic, oily bouquet that lacks the definition and purity of its peers. It needs more lift from the glass. The palate is balanced with a viscous opening, more complex and focused than the aromatics suggest with a citrus-fresh, honeyed finish that feels pure and persistent. This could be excellent if the bouquet improved with bottle age and my score gives it the benefit of the doubt. Tasted blind at the Southwold 2015 Bordeaux tasting.
