Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2012-2020, Richard Hemming MW, jancisrobinson.com, May 2010

Bold plum fruit, very classic tannic structure, really requiring some more time to relax and mature. Dark chocolate, coffee and currants linger on the finish. (RH)

Score 88-90/100 · Drink 2006-2016, Robert Parker, Apr 2006

Space limitations did not allow complete tasting notes for this Cru Bourgeois, but 2005 is the finest vintage for these wines since 1982. The range of scores for these wines should give readers an idea of just how consistent this vintage is at this level. Given the style of the vintage, most of these wines should be accessible young yet evolve for a decade or more because of their concentration and tannic structure.
