James Suckling bewertet den Chateau La Pointe 2015 wie folgt:
This is really tannic and structured with loads of ripe tannins and fruit. Full body. Massive for this estate yet agile. Best ever. 84% merlot and 16% cabernet franc.

Neal Martin bewertet den Chateau La Pointe im April 2016:
The 2015 La Pointe is a blend of 84% Merlot and 16% Cabernet Franc, picked between 27 September for the younger vines for the second wines, and 1 October for the heart of the Merlot, the Cabernet picked 8 and 12 October. Eric Monnoret told me that the 2015 was matured in 50% new oak. It has a comparatively flamboyant bouquet compared to recent vintages of La Pointe, with opulent red berry fruit, kirsch, cassis and patina of tar. The palate is medium-bodied, firm in the mouth at the moment, quite structured, the oak nicely integrated with a slightly savory finish. This is a robust La Pointe, quite spicy in the mouth with a long aftertaste. It will gain more harmony during its élevage.

Rene Gabriel bewertet den Chateau La Pointe 2015:
Dunkles Granat, recht satt in der Mitte, rubiner Rand. Hoch reifes, tendenziell kompottiges, leicht leimiges Bouquet zeigend. Im Gaumen mit ansprechender Körperfülle aufwartend, auch hier wieder hoch reife, süss ausstrahlende Fruchtnoten aufweisend. Fast gross, aber auch etwas easy.
