Critic tasting note: "From a blend of 50% Merlot, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot, this has nice fleshy textures, sweet black cherries, licorice, plums and ripe tannin in abundance.

Vintage quality: Legendary
Current condition: Ready to drink, will keep
The 2010 vintage for Bordeaux is recognized as legendary across the board.
