Score 16.5/20 · Drink 2009-2015, Jancis Robinson MW, Mar 2006

Lively rich colour. Dense and rich and lively. The liveliest, possibly best of this flight. Neat and concentrated. Bit dry on the end. (JR)

Score 89/100 · Drink 2003-2016, Robert Parker, Apr 2001

A strong candidate for an outstanding rating, this dark ruby/purple-colored wine offers a sweet nose of plums, prunes, blackberries, chocolate, and mocha. Soft on the entry, revealing notes of smoke, licorice, and coffee, this fleshy, multi-layered effort finishes with abundant glycerin, tannin, and extract. Another 2-3 years of cellaring is warranted. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2016.

Loads of black olive, with a green character underneath. Full-bodied, with lots of toasted oak and an earthy flavor. Round tannins. Lacks fresh fruit, but interesting. A little more bottle age may help.¿'88/'98 Bordeaux blind retrospective (2008). Best after 2009. James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2009
