92 Points - James Suckling:  Good depth here with some sweet spices and hazelnut characters from the wood that will still take time for the rich, plummy fruit to digest. Tight and medium- to full-bodied, this has firm and lightly chewy tannins on the palate. Long and slightly grainy in the finish. Give it three more years to mellow and integrate. Drink from 2028.

91 Points - Vinous:  The 2022 Clos de la Cure is a plump, juicy Saint-Émilion that will drink well right out of the gate. Inky dark red fruit, new leather, licorice and blood orange all stain the palate. Plush and creamy, with terrific depth, the 2022 is very nicely done. It was aged in equal parts barrique and cement. That, along with the north-facing exposure of this site, contributes to the wine's overall balance.
