Score 87/100 · Drink 2010-2020, Robert Parker, Apr 2010

This blend of 62% Merlot and 38% Cabernet Franc reveals a lot of oak. Proprietor Jean-Philippe Janoueix, who does such a great job with all his estates, may have pushed extraction a touch too far in 2007. There is a slight astringency to the tannins, but the wine possesses impressive density and richness. If everything comes together, it should drink nicely for a decade.

Score 14.5/20 · Drink 2012-2015, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2008

Very dark crimson. Rich and very sweet and concentrated. Then rather exaggerated acidity. Not very comfortable. Tarry overall. (JR)
