  December 31, 2020 - Voici un vieux cru classé, âgé de 45 ans (!) possédant encore une robe surprenante, dense, sombre dans la masse, au disque seulement cuivré. Le nez est fin, caressant, légèrement confituré (cassis). La bouche est pleine, relativement dense, aux tanins encore perceptibles, chauds et encore vigoureux, légèrement acides. Encore un très bon vin, mais largement à maturité. Lauréat de 2 coups de cœur : 2007-2020.

  September 25, 2016 - Old, bouquet and taste, however acceptable, still foursquare, raw acidity.

  December 3, 2013 - This bottle (base of neck fill) survived 38 years very well. Medium ruby, orange on the rim, nice tertiary classical Bordeaux notes. Minerals, iron, earth, underwood, prunes, still some dark jammy fruit. Very mature, on the edge of drying out, but still drinking very nicely.

  April 22, 1997 - Christie's Pre-Sale Tasting (Amsterdam): Better than on previous occasions, more flesh and fruit, lively.
