Wine Spectator Review
Rated 92
Focused, with a still-juicy edge to the mix of black currant and black cherry compote flavors, which are giving way steadily to mouthwatering tobacco and iron notes and refined singed cedar threads through the finish. Textbook Pauillac. Drink now through 2025. (Blind '01/'03/'05 Bordeaux retrospective December 2017).
Wine Tasting Notes
Intense ruby color. A complex nose of red and dark berries well balanced with notes of vanilla and liquorice. After a full "attack", the tannins have considerable finesse showing the greatness of the terroir. On the palate this wine is characterised by a vibrant structure and full, long finish. The aromas in the mouth confirm the aromatic potential of this wine. A wine for the long term.
