Vinous – Neil Martin – 92/100
The 2016 Olivier has an attractive bouquet of blackberry, briar, sous-bois and cedar aromas that gain intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with lithe tannins and fine acidity, fresh and cohesive, leading to quite a persistent finish. This is a lovely wine – not a showstopper, but maybe beginning to improve in bottle.
Robert Parker – The Wine Advocate – 90/100
The deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Olivier features Black Forest cake, kirsch, dried herbs and warm cassis with hints of garrigue, tapenade, forest floor and truffles. Medium-bodied with an elegantly styled palate, it has a solid foundation of ripe, grainy tannins and great freshness lifting the long earthy finish.
