Score 17/20 · Drink 2030-2050, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2013
A cool year. Certainly smells less ripe than the 2007. Firm and fine and sleek but not the most generous. Sinewy style (rather than ethereal). (JR)

Score 18.5/20 · Drink 2018-2033, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Jul 2010
Mute nose, incredibly dense and glutinous on the palate with a spicy, peppery tang, grainy tannins, violets, plums and dates, and a very long finish carried by fine acidity. Powerful and muscular. Outstanding. (RH)
