Score 92/100 · Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
On the nose, the licorice, jam, espresso and ripe fruit pops with no effort. Opulent in texture, the wine is silky and packed with ripe, sweet fruits coupled with notes of extremely ripe, or borderline over ripe fruits that give the wine an exotic character. Still young and primary, this should be a much better wine with anther 5 or more years of bottle age. Jan 2016, www.thewinecellarinsider.com

After 50 years under the direction of the Lichine family, this leading Margaux estate entered a new chapter in 1999 when négociant Ballande took the reins, continuing the property’s previous upward trajectory.
