99 Points
Friday, September 16, 2016 - 66x Parker 100-Pointers from Bordeaux 1947-2010 tasted blind (Switzerland): Tasted blind. Dark purple. Nose of dark, forest notes, eucalyptus, earth, not dissimilar to the Latour 2010 both on nose and palate. Full bodied with excellent structure, fantastic mouth feel as well as length. Young tannins like all 2010's in these flights, a big wait is needed. The more I went back to this wine the more I was impressed. 99+ for now but in 10 years, quite surely three digits. Group score: 18.33, group rank: 23/64
