Score 15.5/20 · Drink 2012-2018, Jancis Robinson MW, Oct 2009
Low-key nose with great density. Solid. A bit austere. Not the lift and juice of Ch Bernadotte. (JR)

Score 16/20 · Drink 2007-2014, Jancis Robinson MW, Aug 2007
Very dark indeed! Soft, velvety, ready. Plush. “Drink me” is the message. Slightly pinched on the finish but really ready. (JR)

4ème Cru Classé Full and simple and bloody. Lots of acidity – too much! (JR)

Score 89/100 · Drink 2007-2017, Robert Parker, Apr 2005
A sleeper of the vintage from proprietor Bernard Magrez, the 2002 exhibits a deep plum/purple color, a sweet nose of tobacco-infused creme de cassis fruit, espresso roast, and white chocolate, dense, medium-bodied flavors, ripe tannin, and impressive concentration as well as length. Anticipated maturity:2007-2017.
