Score 87/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous, Jan 2005
Medium ruby. Oaky aromas of blackberry, black pepper and licorice; rather closed following the August bottling. Sweeter and a bit rounder than the classique, with more appellation-typical flavors of flint, brown spices and iron. But still youthfully disjointed, with the wood dominating. Finishes with firm, peppery, slightly dry tannins.
