Perfect bottle, mint provenance; still a dark ruby red, beautiful colour; cassis perfume from the start, pencil shavings, cedar wood, and cigarbox with that touch of turf, a fabulous nose swirling into dried fruit, and sweet tropical woods; a meaty, bundled, dense palate, very layered hints its tremendous length and one on-going final to be reckoned; #19225 of only 76732 bottles is one part of the concentration's equation, paving to its perfection. 100P

Dark, mature core, slightest discoloration around the rim; from the start a sensational nose, bewildering sweetness, malty, yet red-berried, rosehip, hinting the unique MR chocolate-mint palate that eventually takes you a breath contemplating genious balance, erotic sweetness, plums, discretely present tannin that hold everything together at the right spot, making it a bottled dream; as if it was for a very long period of time after the devastating 56s frost, you'd be ever expecting anything like it; commemorating the 100. anniversary of the Rothschild family's purchase of former chateau Brane-Mouton. 99-100P

Dark orange, brick red, distinct light rim, muted coral red core; wonderful nose, lots of depth and noble woods, dried currants; still a dense and packed, almost meaty palate with harmonious Cabernet notes, dried olives, almonds, cigarbox and leather tones that is Pauillac supreme within Medoc; Consistently evolved into a mature Chambertin-esque long mouthfeel; impressive bottle #46921, legend status at hand. 97-99P
