WS – 92 ; Complex aromas of currants, spices and sweet tobacco with just a hint of cigar box. Full-bodied, with masses of velvety tannins and rich fruit. Very chewy and rich. Best after 2012
RP – 87-89 ; From a vineyard situated on the high plateau of Pauillac, near both Pontet-Canet and Mouton Rothschild, this blend of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Sauvignon reveals excellent cassis fruit, impressive ripeness, good sweetness and depth on the palate, and a long, concentrated finish. A potential sleeper of the vintage... Anticipated maturity: 2008-2016."
