  May 31, 2013 - Au Gazellig, nez sur les fruit rouge et un peu de cuire. En bouche, encore beaucoup de fruits, tanins fondus. Belle longueur. Excellent.

  April 13, 2013 - delicious! drinking perfectly now at 13 years. the fruit and tannins balance beautifully with the mineral and lead pencil in proportion. When Bordeaux is like this, why would I drink anything else?

  July 12, 2008 - Ruby core with a slight brick fade. Powerful cassis on the nose. Mineral, earthy character. A hint of black olive? Light and elegant on the palate with a chalkiness to the mouthfeel. Quite linear really. Medocain rather than Pessac style. Little complexity. Competent.

  July 12, 2008 - Vigorous, purple red core with a little fade on the rim. Vibrant cassis, but not a typical Pessac nose - the wine lacks the gravelly minerality of its youth. Good fruit on the palate with fine tannins but not very complex. Chalky on the finish.
