Critics Ratings

'I hadn't had the opportunity to try this in over a decade and time has had a positive effect as the nose is much more complex with its earth and gamy secondary aromas that are now displaying whispers of sous-bois as well. There is good richness in the context of what is typical for the vintage along with the still notably firm middle weight flavors that exhibit ample minerality on the bright and focused finish that delivers sneaky good depth and length. For my taste this could still use a few more years of cellar time and while it's not likely to ever be a great vintage for this storied wine, it's at least competent.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 91/100 (Apr 2016)
