Reviews:

A very deeply pitched nose grudgingly offers up notes of liqueur of plum, kirsch, earth and a hint of the sauvage. The concentrated and deeply powerful big-bodied flavors brim with dry extract that both buffers the very firm tannic spine as well as imbues the mouth feel with a velvety texture. There is fine balance and excellent length though not quite the sheer depth of the Bonnes Mares. Burghound 93

(from vines between 50 and 60 years of age, according to cellarmaster Bouillot): Bright, saturated red. Knockout primary nose offers aromas of crushed cherry, flowers and fresh blood lifted by wild rose and blood orange. Silky on entry, then pure and sharply delineated in the middle, with an urgent quality and great thrust to its dark cherry and crushed rock flavors. Finishes with noble tannins and outstanding palate-staining persistence. Steve Tanzer 94
