Score 86/100 · Drink 1997-2007, Robert Parker, Feb 1997

There is no herbaceousness in this straightforward, medium-bodied, blackcurrant and spicy-scented wine. It possesses solid fruit, some tannin, and a pleasant texture, with sweeter tannin and more precociousness than its sibling from Leoville-Barton. Drink it over the next decade.
