Critics Ratings
'This was not at the tasting, but it is outstanding. A blind tasting for the magazine late in 2004 resulted in this note and score: Aromas of currant bush, berries and sweet tobacco follow through to a full-bodied palate, with medium tannins and a long finish. Lovely texture to this wine.--Lynch-Bages non-blind vertical. Best after 2008.'- James Suckling Winespectator.com 91/100 (2007)
