90 Points

Monday, March 22, 2010 - (From Magnum) This was classic Pessac in a wonderful refined style that I hope is not exterminated anytime soon (but I have fears it will be...) This wine featured great cool fruit, iron and minerals, some new leather and a bit of cigar box (Habanos and cedar). Still quite a firm wine (both tannins and acid are very healthy) - no fear of holding this for years to come, especially in larger formats. A real treat with food - especially great with the veal and the lamb chops.
