Score 95/100 · Drink 2003-2010, Pierre Rovani, Aug 1998

This wine has a bright, dark ruby color and an enthralling nose of roses, sweet black cherries, and stones. This extraordinary offering is full-bodied, silky-textured, opulent, and jam-packed with fat, intensely ripe red cherries, candied raspberries, minerals, and toasty oak flavors. It has stunning depth, complexity, sensuality, and refinement. Drink it between 2003 and 2010. Importers: Martine's Wines, Inc., San Rafael, CA; tel (415) 485-1800, and Paterno Imports, Chicago, IL; tel (847) 604-8900.

Score 90-93/100 · Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Darker ruby-red color. Brooding cassis and licorice nose, with a whiff of earth and a mineral pungency. Thicker, larger-scaled and sweeter than the Lavieres, but very unevolved. But this premier cru already shows lovely finesse. Has a solid underlying structure for aging. Showing better today than the '95 a year ago.
