Score 82-85/100 · Drink 2003-2012, Robert Parker, Apr 2000
Weedy, with moderately high tannin in the finish, this dark ruby/purple-colored Pauillac offers sweet cassis, dried herbs, and earth aromas. After good ripeness on the attack, the wine becomes more compressed. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2012.

Score 85/100 · Wine Spectator
A bit lean but pretty on the nose, with currant, berry and new wood. Medium in body and tannins, with a short finish. Best from 2005 through 2010. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2001.
