Notes:
There is superb aromatic density here as aromas of blueberries, earth and animale notes blend perfectly with soaring black pinot fruit and big, robust, intense, sturdy yet refined flavors underpinned by firm but ripe structure. This is much bigger than the 1er with more intensity but not the sheer breadth of complexity. Structured and rather dry at the moment but this just seems to ooze freshly crushed black fruit sap everywhere and the tannins are completely buried. This is also slightly better than it was when I last reviewed it. - Burghound Oct 2005. - 93 Points
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, Mar/Apr 04
($235) Medium red. High-toned, pure aromas of cherry liqueur, blueberry, mocha, mace and mint. Sweet, fat, spicy and explosively rich, with an impression of strong acids deriving from the wine's pervasive minerality. Urgent flavor of crushed blueberry mounts slowly and lingers long on the ripely tannic finish. Very deep and very suave. 93(+?) points
