CHÂTEAU DE SALES 2015
Rating : 93
Still maturing, this wine shows ripe black fruits as well as a lower layer of tannins. Concentration, spice and smokiness are part of a harmonious, balanced wine, full bodied and with a good future. Drink from 2021. ROGER VOSS – WINE ENTHUSIAST MAGAZINE

CHÂTEAU DE SALES 2016
Rating : 93
At this stage, this wine is all about the tannins that dominate the black fruits. But fruit weight is there, promising good things as the wine matures. Smoky wood and blackberry flavors are set against a solid structure. There is potential here, so let the wine soften and mature. Drink from 2024. ROGER VOSS – WINE ENTHUSIAST MAGAZINE

CHÂTEAU DE SALES 2017
Rating : 92
Rich and full in the mouth, ripe Merlot sings in this black-fruited wine. Young tannins give the wine weight and bring out the juicy, ripe fruits. The wine is just coming into balance, but wait until 2023. ROGER VOSS – WINE ENTHUSIAST MAGAZINE
