Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2008-2015, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, Sep 2012
Fabulous earthy, developed, fragrant nose. Good amount of grip, in a resolved, rounded way. This has the Margaux flair. (RH)

Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2007-2012, Jancis Robinson MW, Nov 2004
Very deep, very sturdy, and structured. Lively and quite racy, but needs a bit of time. Acidity obvious. Stolid. Quite long. (JR)

Score 16/20 · Drink 2007-2015, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2003
Dark crimson-maroon. Lively, stimulating, interesting wine with excellent balance of acidity and quite dry, low-key, well behaved fruit. Not a big wine but one that knows its limitations. Very delicious for early drinking. (JR)
