RATINGS

94Wine Spectator

A broad, concentrated red, this is full of black cherry, blackberry, vanilla and other sweet spices. A vein of mineral lingers in the background.

93-94The Wine Advocate

...Polished and bright, it exudes the refinement that the Chapelle lacked, leading to a real rush of lingering sweet, caramel- and vanilla-tinged fruit in the finish. The tannins are abundant but ultra-refined...

92-95Burghound.com

..dense dark berry fruit nose of surpassing elegance and refinement that complements perfectly the texture & very Gevrey medium full flavors that in contrast to the nose seem less refined than usual. Indeed, this is a powerful Latricières..

91-94Stephen Tanzer

...juicy and tightly wound but with terrific intensity and lift; with aeration this showed an increasingly creamy, fine-grained texture and noteworthy ripeness and elegance. Very broad wine, dry in a positive way...
