Bright crimson. Very light nose. Astringent. The fruit seems to have been sucked out of this wine. (JR)

An elegant, straightforward style of wine with some earthy, subtle herbaceousness, this effort exhibits medium body, decent red and black currant fruit, and a soft finish. Drink it over the next 5-7 years.

Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2016-2026, Jancis Robinson MW, Apr 2011
Very sweet, ripe black fruits on the nose. Solid, fruity, dense with gravelly chew. No artifice. Very nice expression of place and time. Some astringency, but real life and lift. A delicate hand! Transparency. Real delicacy. Very refreshing, with lovely length. But not nearly as concentrated as some. A good starting point for any student of Bordeaux? Even if very slightly austere. (JR)
