90 points James Suckling
A fruity and juicy red with currant, cherry and plum character and a hint of cedar and rust. Full to medium body, ripe tannins and a flavorful finish. Drink or hold. (2/2018)

This is as you would expect from an extremely strong contender within the Bordeaux Supérieur family in 2015. It has juicy red fruits, and the alcohol is just a touch high (no surprise, as Merlot makes up the vast majority of the blend), which makes the end a little abrupt, but this has power and is excellent value from Jean-Philippe Janoueix.

The 2015 Château Croix-Mouton from Jean-Philippe Janoueix (La Confession, La Croix St. Georges, etc.) is a rock-solid effort, and at 15 bucks is a terrific deal. From Lugon-et-the Ile-du-Carnay, not far from Fronsac, and made from mostly Merlot (there’s a splash of Cabernet Franc), it checks in at over 14% alcohol and offers terrific notes of ripe black cherries, smoked meats, licorice, and cedar. Rounded, supple and beautifully textured, with ripe tannin, it’s a delicious effort and a terrific little Bordeaux Superior to drink over the coming 3-5 years. (11/2017)
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Composed of 98% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc, the medium garnet-purple colored 2015 Bordeaux Superieur has a spicy red cherries and mulberries nose with touches of pencil lead, herbs and a waft of garrigue. The medium-bodied mouth is soft with chewy tannins and good density, finishing with an herbal lift. (LPB) (2/2018)
Vinous
The 2015 Croix-Mouton is a delicious, budget-friendly wine to drink now and over the next few years, while the red cherry and plum fruit retains its youthful vibrancy. Sweet floral notes add brightness and lift to this very pretty midweight Bordeaux Supérieur from Jean-Philippe Janoueix. Tasted two times. (AG) (2/2018)
