Gault&Millau's review
17.5/20
Prestige Restaurant It's time to blossom, to reap the rewards of so much effort and investment at the foot of Château Smith Haut-Lafitte. Nicolas Masse is an acclaimed chef, now reaching the highest ranks, captain of an ultra-performing team and general-in-chief of a restaurant that caters to all the desires of the fine clientele of Les Sources de Caudalies. At Grand Vigne, the flagship, everything is in place: welcome, service, decor in harmony with the winegrowing environment, ceremonial that's just right without being heavy-handed, there's not a mission or gesture that isn't carried out correctly. The first course is extraordinary and symbolic: three layers, three ingredients, one dish, Anton style: peas, fresh goat's cheese, caviar. And bam! Praise for simplicity and a representation of Nicolas Masse's cuisine today, going for the essential, the truth of the product, the purity, the quintessence, without falbalas, little dots, little heaps.... Once you've got the hang of it, it's time to unroll: superb white asparagus cooked in a salt crust, nasturtium pesto, peel ice cream (perhaps a grain of sugar too much), brill unilaterally aillet celtuce beurre noisette aux coques en marinière, melting lamb, the rack, the saddle, a stuffed morel mushroom, a cromesquis of frayed meat, just right, sober, efficient and very gourmet. Here, we're not competing, we're pleasing our guests. Pastry chef Anthony Chenoz takes over in harmony with a rhubarb "rose des vignes" dessert in a very pleasing interplay of textures. In the cellar, all Smith Haut Lafitte, perfectly presented by expert sommelier Aurélien Farrouil, a vibrant advocate of the Bordeaux cause, in a tasteful cellar that's not too show-offish, with, for example, very good champagnes from proprietors (Agrappart, Peeters...).
