Mid crimson. A bit grey. Light and fragrant – well balanced. Easy to overlook. All fine in the lights of a 2001. Well balanced. (JR)

Score 87/100 · Drink 2007-2014, Robert Parker, Jun 2004

Typically stern, masculine, firm, and almost completely closed, this dark plum-colored, medium-bodied Pauillac offers hints of earth as well as black currant fruit in a virile, monolithic format. It possesses good weight and depth, and aging may bring forth more character and charm. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2014.
