RATINGS

93Robert M. Parker Jr.

It has a beautifully elegant nose of black fruits intermixed with truffle, flower, and oak. The wine is medium to full-bodied, dense, with wonderful precision, freshness, and a long, full-bodied finish...

92Wine Spectator

Full-bodied, with silky tannins and pretty fruit. Needs a bit more fruit on the midpalate to be a classic Margaux, but clearly outstanding.

92+ Stephen Tanzer

...Classic aromas of boysenberry, black cherry, minerals and lead pencil. Then juicy and penetrating, with cabernet-dominated berry and mineral flavors...Finishes with very firm, youthfully tough tannins...

17Jancis Robinson

Sweet and easy and round and digestible. Racy, with a very neat finish
