Score 88/100 · Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider, Nov 2016
Surprisingly, still going strong at close to 10 years of age. This is probably due to the blend, which includes almost 40% Petit Verdot! The wine is earthy, spicy, floral and shows a dark, blackberry fruit and olive note. Round and ready, if you have a bottle, do not hesitate to pop a cork. 88 Points

Score 89/100 · Drink 2015-2023, Robert Parker, Jun 2015
A supple-textured, fleshy, rich, dark ruby/purple-colored wine from the late Vincent Mulliez, this delicious, sexy 2005 can be drunk now or cellared for another 7-8 years. It is an intriguing blend of 34% Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, and a whopping 39% Petit Verdot, which probably makes it one of the more distinctive blends in Bordeaux.
