Christian Marcoux rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Sandwiched between Grave and Entre Deux Mers, Cadillac Cotes de Bordeaux offers fantastic easy-drinking wine and Chateau Baracan 2015 is a perfect example. Aromas of raspberry, red plum, tobacco leaf, black pepper, leather, spice and oak will fill your glass. Crafted from 40% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot, the Chateau Baracan exposes a medium body and great balance, and a long and fruity finish. Flavors of red plum, cherry, black pepper, leather, vanilla and oak. Enjoy!

A fine example of the riper 2015 vintage - ample, fleshy and potent but made with sensible restraint and from a perfectly time harvest time. Fruit is sourced from the Cadillac region of Bordeaux's right bank and offers surprisingly firm tannins, a notably clean profile and great concentration. Very good value - don’t miss out. Best 2020-2025. Tatsed April 2019.

Daniel O'Keefe rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Look for aromas of fresh cherry and raspberry, vanilla and oak spice, and a mild hint of violet. Medium body with moderate tannins and bright acidity. Accessible and, for a red of this calibre, surprisingly easy-drinking. Four grape blend, dominated by equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot at 40%, rounded out by Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot at 15% and 5% respectively. Good value. Try with beef stew or pork tenderloin.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
