Tasting Notes

Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book (3), November 1998

Rich ruby with very 1990 dusty rusty rim. So amazingly ripe and powerful. Fully evolved and luscious on the nose.Very sweet and fleshy with just some very fine tannins on the finish. Luscious. Lots of mature fruit with a hint of rather attractive decay - like those waxy anti mosquito preparations..? Very sweet and gorgeous.

Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, July 2009

Good colour with a slight rim. A warm bouquet with some good fruit. On the palate, good acidity and weight, with lovely fruit, cream, tar and leather. A very powerful wine with a very long finish. 16pts. Lindsay Hamilton, 16 Nov 01.
