Fifth Growth. Cinquieme Grand Cru Classe in 1855.
Critic tasting note: "Tobacco, herbs. cassis, earth and spicy cherry aromas mesh well with the medium bodied, soft textured palate. Slightly on the lean side, with some green in the finish, produced from a blend of 61% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc, this is close to fully mature and should be enjoyed sooner than later. 87 Points" - 87/100, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
