89 Points

Sunday, January 10, 2010 - This needed time to shake out the creases from bottle, but on this occasion it didn't get it - pop and pour. Inky and full-bodied with great Pauillac typicity, but perhaps lacking a little grace. All the components seem to be there but they're slightly out of balance and need time to integrate. Still rather tight and primary. I like it - I like it a lot - but at the moment it's all about potential. Try another one in 2-3 years. 89+
